The more i learn about them, the more I wonder how they tolerate the extraness forced into everything by virtue of who they are and what their compulsions make them believe they need

It all sounds so exhausting and like being on stage all day every day

I think it's more exhausting to be around a narcissist.

The narcissists themselves seem to feed off of the behavior.

Oh, absolutely. Im just sayin', I marvel at the notion that that shit actually energizes/truly nourishes them and makes them feel at ease

I think it's just part of their personality so that's just how they operate, they aren't seeing it as extra work. Extra work for them is when people are making them do things they don't want to do
