In egocentrism, you're unable to see someone else's point of view; but in narcissism, you see that view but not care about it. People high in narcissism may even become annoyed when others fail to see things their way. Narcissists are bred, not born, into their behaviors.

One requires a shrink w/ more training and experience, hence the difference is $25/hr.

Does it matter? A president can be both at the same time.

This is the result I got when I Googled it. I'm not sure I agree with the statement the way it's worded.

We sociopaths don't worry about such fine distinctions.

NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) is a recognized and documented personality disorder classification.

Egocentrism and Egoism in an adult would likely be called “Other specified personality disorder – general criteria for a personality disorder are met but fails to meet the criteria for a specific disorder, with the reason given.”

“Although egocentrism and narcissism appear similar, they are not the same. A person who is egocentric believes they are the center of attention, like a narcissist, but does not receive gratification by one's own admiration. Both egotists and narcissists are people whose egos are greatly influenced by the approval of others, while for egocentrists this may or may not be true.”


I’m not a shrink, but I play one on TV. grinning smiley
