I want to confront an old friend but don’t know how to do it

Narcissist, psychopath or sociopath?

Hello,

I have been keeping my eyes on someone and really want to ask them what’s wrong. They are acting very, very strange and I was wondering if I could have some general opinions and opinions from people’s past experiences as to what category they think fits with this person.


Some of the things they are doing are:

- nervous when someone says hello after a few years
- Seemingly love bombing people (including me)
- Following half naked “models” on instagram and twitter when he is meant to be with someone
- Stating that they love being toxic
- Seemingly obsessed with appearance
- Hating when people are happy
- Sometimes acts child-like at 23
- Acting passive aggressive
- Playing sad songs. Sometimes before meeting someone they “love”
- Aggressive if you have a different opinion
- Always wants to be superior and calls himself god
- Posts sad quotes online
- Posts pictures of him and his “partner” and then deletes after a week
- Livestreams looking “sad”
- Donates a lot to a bunch of streamers Maybe for validation?
- Spends most of the day on pc and hardly any sleep. But looks fine and has a lot of caffeine
- Gets offended really easily and will defend his position that he is right. Hardly any compromise.

There’s so many red flags and I just don’t know how to approach them to ask about it.

Thank you

Maybe look in the DSM manual and check what category where his behavior checks all the boxes.
He could be bipolar 1 with high manic states. And or drugs. Actually sounds a lot like my sister, who is very hard to figure out. She has ADHD, and I think is also Bipolar 1 and or BPD, and narcissistic and or histrionic. Damaged ego, insecure, and a huge huge right fighter. A real PIA to be around and a constant source of aggravation.
