Someone I know shows stuff such as:

• constantly needing a scapegoat
• shifting blame/cannot take accountability
• exaggerated mindset, often where other people are useless and they are the greatest
• has to maintain a very positive public image, such as being the absolute best
• does not have empathy unless it involves them or impacts their image in some way, if their image is supposed to be empathetic they will act so because of their image
• lacks empathy for people in pain/bad mental health/etc. but their image might be very upset about that
• will often be very nice to people in any sort of power

I’m asking because I’m genuinely curious if I should help, and maybe that even if they exhibit negative behaviors, they’re not a completely TERRIBLE person despite how they treat me.
