Can Stress Trigger Narcissism??
So I'm finishing up studying for the CFA level 3 and I've had some troubling thoughts. I feel like I'm in that Idiocracy movie. Everyone seems so dull and I've been worrying excessively about my appearance. I've been sleeping 3-4 hours a night and I am paranoid about dark circles under my eyes. I've thought about getting a spray tan to hopefully cover it up and even considered dabbing a little concealer if that doesn't work. The Kiehl's undereye gel I got is garbage! I really feel like a Patrick Bateman without the lust for blood. I had similar issues last year around the same time and it completely went away after the test. I thought I was just having some kind of weird quarter life crisis at the time, but since it popped up again I'm curious if stress is the culprit. Have you guys ever experienced any changes in your personality when your under a lot of stress?
go for a run
I think everyone in trading/banking is a narcissist tbh.
cognitive dissonance
people need to justify their experience
it's just biology
UFO, couldn't agree more.
When you get out of work, just sleep, turn off the TV
Go exercise for an afternoon after work, no study, just get dog tired, then shower & go to bed early. Because hell yes stress changes your personality.
Dude, you need to call up one of your lady friends. Release some tension.
The shittier you look from when you're at a "normal" level, the more you're going to worry about your appearance.
Misanthropy?
I love that word. You get an SB because I love that word so much.
Life triggers narcissism.
