What people said
Alanis MorissetteCanadian-American singer-songwriter known for the 1995 album Jagged Little Pill
Morissette says being raised in narcissism left her without a felt sense of self and oriented toward serving others.
“Raised in narcissism, my existence meant beholding other, being supply for narcissism. I don't even exist. There's not even a person here”

Leanne ten BrinkePsychologist, director of the Truth and Trust Lab at the University of British Columbia, and author of Poisonous People
Ten Brinke argued that dark traits exist on a continuum, so it is more accurate to describe people as having high levels of a trait than labeling them narcissists.
“I think it's more accurate to say they have relatively high levels of narcissism or psychopathy or whatever the case is”
