Just a reminder that having no narcissistic behavior tendencies could almost be classified as an actual an illness on its own. It's perfectly normal to have narcissistic behaviors, key word being BEHAVIORS. That's not even close to being a pathological narcissist or suffering from Narcissistic Personality disorder.
The way Ina reacted during the stream can be classified as a narcissistic episode for thinking that it's only her viewers who would go out of their way to ruin her experience. It can also be a short dip into her internal perfectionism or a mix of both. Ina felt that the stream was damaged or even ruined, because she was denied the ability to progress the story at her own pace, removing her reaction and thus damaging the streaming experience for her viewers. Because at the end of the day it's her job to provide reactions to content.
I could dive and classify those things further and talk about how all of it could fit a grandiose or vulnerable narcissist or how it could be a self-orientated or an overt perfectionism(my personal favorite one for Ina), but I wont go further. Simply because the idea that i'm trying to psychoanalyze an insignificant event of a person who is already inherently wearing various masks because of her job is dumb at the very least. It would be more interesting to analyze the reactions to this whole discussion.
Fuck psychology, why didn't I learn how to code.
