Selfie Syndrome: Social Media and Narcissism — December 28, 2013

Selfie Syndrome: Social Media and Narcissism

Here at Sisters of Resistance, we get regular inquiries from people who are trying to determine if their partner has narcissistic traits, and to understand their behaviour and the dangers it poses for them and the relationship.

Although we’re not asserting a causal relationship between the use of social media and the rise in narcissism (there are a number of broader factors in late modernity, like neoliberalism, that are likely contributing to the trend as well), we thought this infographic from http://www.bestcomputerscienceschools.net/selfies/ was especially useful for its at-a-glance images of the Signs of Narcissism.

We hope that it helps you identify and put some distance between yourself and narcissists in your life in 2014.
