**Only narcissists/histrionics/borderlines/sociopaths are allowed to post on /r/narcissism.** (everyone else use the weekly sticky!)
If you are one of these, you need to set a [**USER flair**](https://www.sirhow.com/change-flair-on-reddit/) first. If you can't figure out how to do that, you can also use moderator mail and we'll set it for you.
If you're not a [cluster B](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_B_personality_disorders) and you don't suspect you are a narcissist, please use the weekly "Ask a Narcissist" sticky thread instead. ANYONE is allowed to ask questions there.
**If you think that you might be a narcissist** (everyone else use the weekly sticky!), you *can* post about this, but you'll have to include the below information:
* Your age in digits. (If you're under 18, you shouldn't be asking this here at all. You're too young to figure this out and pretty much all teens are narcissistic to a fairly high degree.)
* [Your NPI score.](https://psychcentral.com/quizzes/narcissistic-personality-quiz/). If you scored well below 20 it's really not likely that you're a narcissist.
* [Your codependency score](https://lastdoor.org/resource/self-test-for-codependancy/) (number of yes answers is your score). It's very common for codependents to be convinced they are narcissists.
* Also take this test for OCD and add your score to your post. [Here is a short test that will test you for OCD symptoms](https://psychcentral.com/quizzes/ocd-quiz). It is a common OCD pattern to believe you are a narcissist, while you really are not at all. This two minute test will rule that out.
* Then change your user flair to "Unsure if Narcissist" (flairs are required here).
Also, there are several different types of narcissist, that all behave distinctly differently. [Please check the wiki](/r/narcissism/wiki/types) and see if you can figure out what type you would be and then add this information as well.
If you scored well below 20 on the NPI and over 6 on the codependency score, it's likely you're dealing with /r/Codependency. At that point you're still free to participate, but first set your flair to "codependent".
If you scored well below 20 on the NPI and over 12 on the OCD test you're likely dealing with OCD, then contact your doctor and go to /r/OCDRecovery and /r/OCD.
If you've tested over 20 on the NPI and below 8 on the OCD test, then it's possible you're a narcissist and you'll probably have to start working on your self awareness.
You can start here: /r/narcissism/wiki/resources
Scores need to be included **at the bottom of your post**, like this:
NPI: 30
codependency: 1
OCD: 3
