(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-11-05)

Often people go to a therapist when they start to experience a strong personal discomfort, however often this never happens as because their personality is egosyntonic.

However for whoever is standing near to those persons the situation can become very annoying (see [Does neuroticism cause people to hurt others?](https://cogsci.stackexchange.com/questions/5874/does-neuroticism-cause-people-to-hurt-others)).

The narcissist is often unconscious to have a "problem", he simply thinks that the problem comes from others and that his way of thinking should be taken also by others.
