Situations such as a desire to look cute, fake sensitivity, fear of attachment, an anxiety of aging and death, pansexuality, overnight relationships, desire for fame can be accepted as narcissistic features. Is narcissism one of the choices to deal with anxiety and tensions in contemporary life for those who are afraid to lose?
Thanks in advance for your sharing.

Thank you very much for your contribution. Best wishes. Murat
No! Its just like robbing Peter to pay Paul. Narcissism is a moral canker that should never be seen as a solution for contemporary tensions and anxiety. Clinging to the ideals of humanity is the best medicine.
Yes maybe. However, this defensive mechanism is not suited to the process of existence of the person, so it can do harm instead of benefit. It can make the individual more anxious, more abstract. Instead, I think it is more appropriate to turn to the practices that provide inner peace.
Dear colleagues,
Thank you very much for your comments and contrubitions. Best regards..
The construction of narcissism as a description of mental illness/personality disorder is of little value, and often merely employed as criticism of someone disliked-usually famous. Originally, it was devised to explain the energy expended on the self by those suffering psychosis, for example, and since has become a modern description of the successful, the able, the original, sexually experimental and adventurous.
For me, no. I think that the choice of narcissism has only cons which sooner or later will be developed.

In some cases, narcissism must be choised to address a given reality
