Daniel J. Fox, Ph.D., is a licensed psychologist based in Texas, a renowned international speaker, and a recipient of multiple awards for his work as an author. Dr. Fox's expertise lies in personality disorders, ethics, burnout prevention, and emotional intelligence. We examine the cultural nuances and developmental aspects of narcissism, alongside the complexities of diagnosing and categorizing it. The conversation extends to the blurry boundaries between narcissism and antisocial personality disorder, shedding light on the utility and constraints of the DSM-5.Listeners are invited into a lively debate on the shortcomings of DSM diagnoses, questioning their overlap and inadequacy. Furthermore, the discussion underscores the surge in DSM diagnoses, fueling concerns about overmedication. Ultimately, the conversation advocates for a more nuanced approach to mental health, emphasizing the need to move beyond rigid categories towards a deeper understanding of individual conditions.Daniel J.
