Individuals with NPD often have an inflated sense of self-importance and may exaggerate their achievements or talents. They may constantly seek admiration and validation from others to bolster their fragile narcissistic self-esteem. People with NPD may believe that they are entitled to special treatment or privileges without regard for the feelings or needs of others. They may expect others to cater to their demands and become resentful or enraged when their expectations are not met.
