    This is a pretty empathy focused group, which would be really difficult for someone with NPD. The few rare cases of someone with NPD being self aware and more critically, self reflective and seeking to change and be more empathic is like looking for a needle in a haystack. More commonly you'll see narcissistic behaviors and traits in most people that will pop up in a given circumstance. I could share about those instances in my life, but they make me feel really ashamed, so I'm out.

      Well, autism is also a disorder that impairs empathy with neurotypicals, and this space seems like it would be able to tolerate plenty of autistic people. I have ASD and NPD, and I think accommodating them requires a roughly equal amount of effort. There's just more available literature on how to talk to people with autism.
