Narcissistic Supply: Narcissist's Drug

  • 12 years ago
The Primary Narcissistic Supply is attention, in both its public forms (fame, notoriety, infamy, celebrity) and its private, interpersonal, forms (adoration, adulation, applause, fear, repulsion). It is important to understand that attention of any kind -- positive or negative -- constitutes Primary Narcissistic Supply. Infamy is as sought after as fame, being notorious is as good as being renowned.
