I am working on narcissist personality and looking for some study regarding "when narcissist gets old what happens to their narcissists behavior"? Does it's narcissist behavior increase or decrease with the passage of time?
It depends on the level of narcissism if it is below 5 points and if the person was accepted into psychoanalysis.
The problems for narcissists who try to battle the aging process start when they take things too far, subjecting themselves to plastic surgeries that rid them of those hated sags and bags under their eyes or around their middles. Putting themselves under the knife for surgery after surgery can put them at risk for other complications.
In relationships, the midlife or older narcissist may fall prey to the vain desire to be as attractive to younger romantic partners. This could lead to their exploitation if these younger partners see them as targets for financial gain. Even without such dire consequences there may still be hurt feelings that result from such encounters. Behind their backs, others ridicule the narcissists seeking eternal youth for not “acting their age.”
