Lucid Dreaming, Psychedelics & Narcissism | Sam Vaknin on PDs, DMT & Real Relationships

In this in-depth excerpt from a 1-hour Live Q&A, Prof. ‪@samvaknin‬ addresses a series of advanced and rarely discussed questions at the intersection of narcissism, lucid dreaming, psychedelics, and relationship psychology. 🔍 Key topics explored in this excerpt: • Can lucid dreaming provide narcissistic or self-supply? • How narcissists perceive internal vs external objects — and why narcissism borders on pseudopsychosis • Whether DMT or psychedelics can treat personality disorders • Why depression and anxiety are fundamentally different from personality disorders • Why there is no “silver bullet” or single molecule that can cure narcissism • How to proactively enter relationships using boundaries, self-regulation, and differentiation • Why infatuation and limerence are not love • How narcissistic “pro-social” behavior differs from genuine care • Why real compassion happens in private, not on display • A provocative literary thought experiment: “Davidian Personality Disorder” ⚠️ Important clarification: This discussion is educational and theoretical. Psychedelics, including DMT and ketamine, are discussed in a scientific and clinical context only. No medical or therapeutic advice is given. 📌 Why this matters: Personality disorders are complex syndromes, involving genetics, neurobiology, cognition, emotion, and development. Vaknin explains why simplistic narratives — “a gene for this,” “a drug for that” — are not only wrong, but dangerous.
