I've known Bryan for a LONG time. We werre for the mosty part of the
time we've known each other the best of friends, as long as I didn't
require certain "things" from Bryan. This always kibnda bugged me, but
what *I* got out our friendship made up fior whatever it was that I
fould lacking in our friendship, which I could not identify for the
longest time. Now that I've had a medical education (nursing) I now
strongly suspect for good cause that Bryan suffferers from as ragoing
case of what I discovered is probably Narcissistic Personality
Disorder. I've read up on it a little and Bryan fits to a tee every
diagnostic criteria for this condition. I feel terrible for him that
his probble condition is not as easily to treat as mine. Becaose whole
for Bipolar disorder there are plethora of medication which cah
wameliorate the negative symptoms, for Bryan's there are no
recommenmded meds for it! The only recommendation is intensive
psychotherapy, which because of the nature of it in Bryan will
probably prevent him from being able to ever take advantage of the
conditgion's only recommended therapy. :-(
