    The article is actually about self obsession which when symptoms are chronic can be indicative of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. In this context the comment is justified.

    The comment is no doubt, justified if the article is about NPD. My point was that perhaps it was a little understated.... the bit about "might not be a bad idea" sounds so laid back... Anyway, just struck me as a little oddly worded that's all.
    But then OCD" always seems to feature, one way or another, in any article written by the media, about mental health ......and I suppose at least the condition is getting recognition, (albeit for perhaps the wrong reasons) and that has to be a good thing, doesnt it.....or maybe not !
