The basic dynamic of this particular brand of co-morbidity goes like this: The narcissist feels superior, unique, entitled and better than his fellow men. He thus tends to despise them, to hold them in contempt and to regard them as lowly and subservient beings.

Individual therapy has not been terribly effective and is generally directed at short-term solution to the immediate problem rather than long-term elimination. Attempts are made to develop a reinforcement for social contacts and relationship in a non-threatening milieu. Cognitive restructuring may be useful in dealing with clearly illogical thoughts that are posing a risk to functioning and coping. The objective is to stabilize the situation and support the client. While it helpful to keep the individual in therapy, the individual may vacillate between showing a world of fantasy and close relationships and total fear of dependency.
