#autism and personality disorders
I’ve noticed a pattern in myself that another autistic narc has confirmed they experience. I ended up internally calling what experience a narcissistic meltdown, where my autism and NPD combine to cause me to have a narcissism fueled meltdown.
I guess it would be similar to a narc crash but it’s a lot more specific and crashes can last for a long time, whereas with a meltdown it can last from 10 minutes to just a few hours.
For me, it’s when something triggers my NPD, and because I’m either unable to fix it or don’t know how to deal with it, I can get overwhelmed and a meltdown happens.
I feel like autistic with NPD have a very specific experience, and this would be a useful term.
