What are the symptoms of hypersensitive NPD?

Hypersensitive narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a subtype of NPD that is characterized by extreme sensitivity to criticism, rejection, and perceived slights. Symptoms of hypersensitive NPD include a sense of entitlement, a grandiose sense of self-importance, excessive self-absorption, and an inability to recognize the feelings and needs of others. Individuals with hypersensitive NPD may experience intense feelings of shame, fear, and anger when they feel they are being criticized or rejected. They may become defensive, reactive, and may blame others for their own problems or shortcomings. Ultimately, hypersensitive NPD can lead to significant interpersonal difficulties and affect a person's ability to form healthy relationships.
