Or narcissistic behavior like some people have said?

From my friend Jaiden that I posted about, just curious.

Sounds like a child or someone extremely immature that has uncritically absorbed idealistic, unrealistic, and counter-productive mass cultural ideals (meaning, created by the ultra-rich owners of media/advertising corporations to manipulate the masses for their own ends) without thinking about the necessary sacrifices to achieve those goals, or the negative consequences that would occur as a result of achieving those goals, or whether any of those goals would actually lead to fulfillment and happiness.

She's 24, my age. She has apparently suffered extreme abuse for years and is locked up in her house, IDK.

Oh :(

I unfortunately had an abused partner and they had narcissistic behaviors that were either ways to survive the abuse, or learned directly from their abuser, mirroring and reproducing the very behavior that damaged them so badly.
