I have some questions for you.
1) Have you ever had an MRI done?
2) If you answered yes to the previous question, did the results reveal any abnormalities in your brain?

I don’t think many people get brain scans for mental health issues with possibly the exception of taking the PCL-R to do an assessment for psychopathy. I’ve read a lot of theories that pwNPD and possibly other disorders have similar damage to the brain as seen in psychopaths, it’s believed to be a combination of genetics and repeated overloads of stress hormones in critical developmental stages of life which can cause brain damage. It’s an interesting subject

@OP
Yes and yes.
Be aware that this isn't a black and white issue. There are many factors involved, and a lack of response to stimulus can be caused by many things.
Question for you: Why are you looking into this now?
I'm not arguing; I'm explaining why I'm right.

How do you "pass" an MRI?

I’m alittle surprised how many brain scans people on here have had. Maybe the US should be doing more of them

Soz, wrote it in a rush. What I meant to say was that I was all clear.
I only had it done after a bad cycling accident.

Maybe other countries are doing too much brain scans. I mean it's okay for healthy problems, but I find it a little excessive for psychological reasons - unless it's something very serious.
