I do not think they do. They lack the ability to acceot that they are anything but right.

My narcissistic ex-husband abused alcohol. Being a psychologist he came up with all sorts of intellectual theories to support his argument that he did not have a problem with alcohol. I believed him at the time as he had and still has a good job. Once you leave a narcissistic relationship you begin to unravel fact from fiction. FACT! Someone who drinks 20 units of alcohol every day has a problem!

How do you reason with an abuser?

Reasoning with an abuser is not something the abused person should probably try. Most abusers are very good at manipulation. If you try to discuss it with them, you may be disappointed and become more hurt and angry. If they are an abuser, they already know it, but do not expect them to admit it.Rather then reason with them, you should talk to someone that you trust about it. It might be hard to admit to someone that you are being abused, but it is better to face your fear by reaching out to someone then continuing to be abused.

Anyone could do either - in the view of many narcissists everyone else is there to flatter and supply them with what they need emotionally. You can go from being overvalued if you are doing this 'pumping up' to being apparently hated and put down viciously (often behind your back too) as soon as you don't do what they feel you should be doing.
