Professions

I realize that in the spirit of safety and anonymity it is not advised to name N or their linked profession.

I do know there are a higher concentration of Narcs within their chosen profession. Does anyone have insight to this?

I wondered what type of profession if any - provided more exploitable supply that they are notoriously drawn to.

Does public attention in the profession serve as their mask? Are they often undetected among peers in the field?

I think Narcs are drawn to

I think Narcs are drawn to professions where they are esteemed, have power, can be a hero, shine in the limelight.... Mine was ex military but is now in the private sector. I know that Lawyer, Doctor, Fireman, Police Officer, Military, Politician, Teacher, Paramedic, Musician etc. etc. have been mentioned on this board in the past. However it is important to note that those professions also have lots of Non Narcs. **And while I'm at it...let's please remember that there are guys on these forums. Some of whom may be in the professions we speak of and who honestly aren't Narcs. I just want to be mindful of that.**

meant narcs

"**And while I'm at it...let's please remember that there are guys on these forums. Some of whom may be in the professions we speak of and who honestly aren't Narcs. I just want to be mindful of that.*" Permit me to reiterate if I was not clear - Was curious about the prevalence or gravitation of NARCS to certain professions. Post was prefaced with the word NARCS. Women are in same professions - only meant to cover NARCS in professions, :) Just clarifying

Mine is in public health

in a female dominated field and one of the few MS's in a field of PhDs. His new OW is a PhD from a prestige school, and I'm sure it's just a matter of time before he "downgrades" to the part-time court reporter that is excess supply that his OW doesn't know about. How do I know all this? I check his email (I have his password) and FB. I am trying so hard to stop this! Today is literally day ONE of this type of NC for me. Trying to be strong, but as some have said, you don't really find out anything you don't already know and often times can get hurt. Plus not to say anything about not being in NC. I'm 45+ days NC but perhaps it doesn't count that I have ocaissionally checked email? Do I have to start counting over today like AA?

Another cop

The most recent one was a dog handler cop and the first one was a senior buyer for pharmaceutical company. The recent cop one is a mega narcisstic cop and is constantly seeking womens attention. He does charity events and his latest one is to arrange a ladies night where he will be partially clothed! Makes me want to vomit as he is not attractive! He is desperate for any woman to adore him - whether married or not. He wants to be the alpha male with a harem of adoring women. He seems to pull it off until they realise the truth, but he doesn't care because he seems to have so many he just moves on to the next!

hope we are not talking about the same person...lol!! Doing a phd and wanting to be a professor....you see when you do a phd normally you copy other peoples work or analyse other writers work...this is perfect for them as they are never original.

So true Belle de jour, the xN

So true Belle de jour, the xN I was in the relationship with was an educator and indeed had endless supply from students, they were the majority of his OW supply in fact for 30 years, and even now he is still stalking some of them via the internet to 'catch up' periodically. Makes me feel nauseated thinking about it.

Holy shit!!!!! I just

Holy shit!!!!! I just realized my exhusband and ex boyfriend are both Narcs but one was somatic and the other was cerebral!!!! I thought for the longest time that my exh wasnt a narc until I did a second time around with him recently...I kept saying, "But he isnt like my exboyfriend!!" NO...because he was the cerebral form..... WOW....this makes perfect sense to me now!! Thank you for posting this!! It totally cleared this confusion up for me.... And thank you too Hunter for your somatic and cerebral comment!! xoxo

dominant / recessive

Usually both with one being domininant - the other recessive : one ready to take over as it lies in wait. "Asswagon" exhibited both at one time or another. To me it did not matter which aspect was in the room at any given time. The result was still the same. FTR he appeared to exhibit cerebral dominant. Peppered with somatic - which would rise and fall depending on his narcissistic, mercurial temperature. Always lying in wait to come out and express itself in icky sex - and the immediate disconnect after he had his "happy" moment. Not a therapist but from the little I do know, there were elements of severe mood swings that seemed to navigate and dictate which side came out. Triggered by feedback/results to his constant angling.

My ex just finished his

My ex just finished his masters degree...his dream is to get into business consulting and one day be a CEO. He wants money and power and status sooo badly! Typical narc. I think any job where they are in a position of power suits them. And you certainly wont find them in unglamorous jobs helping the 'little people'. Its all about them.

From what I've read, there

From what I've read, there are some narcs that are in "helping" professions but only because they get their supply from other people admiring how selfless they are. My exNH is a high level executive. I'm sure he loves this because not only does it supply him with the prestige, power and money he craves, but he also gets to control people.

Typically Cop spells Narc..

Typically Cop spells Narc.. Many law enforcement professions.. It's about ego and control.. Remember there are 2 types of narc Somatic vs cerebral My Narc is a very high powered Dog Trainer Woof,,Woof .. Shock the shit out of the dog till he submits.. Before that he made furniture, before that he owned a jewelry store (that mommy financed) and so on and so on .. A real winner indeed..
