#narcissism

• To admire oneself — To admire oneself excessively, often with a feeling of exaggerated pride, vanity, or narcissism; to view one's own physical qualities, achievements, or character traits with extreme satisfaction, completely ignoring the opinions or criticisms of others.
• Self-admiration — The act of admiring oneself or its result; excessive and often unjustified admiration for one's own person, appearance, intelligence, or achievements. In clinical psychology, it is considered a core component of narcissistic behavior and ego-centered personality disorders.
• Self-admiration — A feeling of deep, often exaggerated and uncritical admiration that a person harbors toward themselves, their own qualities, actions, or physical appearance; a state of eccentric self-satisfaction structurally approaching the manifestations of narcissism.
• To self-deify — To consider oneself a deity or to consciously or pathologically attribute divine qualities, absolute perfection, and supernatural powers to oneself; to undergo an inner process of extreme glorification of one's own ego, often associated with megalomania, clinical narcissism, or historical cults of personality.
• Self-deification — The act of self-deifying and its result; the psychological, cultural, or political process by which an individual elevates themselves to the status of a deity or arrogates the attributes of divinity, manifested through immeasurable pride and the denial of one's own human limitations.
• Self-praise — The act of praising oneself and its result; the discursive or behavioral process by which an individual commends themselves publicly or privately, often manifested as a psychological compensation mechanism or as a form of exacerbated egocentrism.
• Autoerastie — A rare form of psychosexual manifestation or behavioral deviation where erotic attraction, desire, and satisfaction are directed exclusively toward oneself; sexual narcissism taken to the extreme, where the individual becomes their own object of worship and bodily passion.
• Autofetishism — A psychological and behavioral manifestation where a person derives sexual satisfaction or arousal by focusing on their own body, specific body parts, or by wearing personal items and clothing viewed as fetishistic stimuli. It is closely related in literature to autosexuality and erotic narcissism, representing an exclusive channeling of libido toward oneself.
• Autophilia — An emphasized form of self-love; a psychological tendency manifested through excessive admiration, affective fixation, or erotic attraction oriented exclusively toward one's own body or person. In scientific literature, the term is frequently used as a conceptual equivalent to severe narcissism or clinical autosexuality.
• Self-enchantment — A state of exaggerated, often unfounded admiration for one's own qualities, achievements, or actions; self-delusion fueled by vanity or narcissism. In a psychological sense, it represents a self-defense or compensatory mechanism through which an individual distorts their perception of subjective reality, isolating themselves in a sterile self-admiration that hinders authentic spiritual or intellectual progress.
• Autolatry — Cult-like adoration or mystical and absolute veneration of oneself; an extreme and pathological form of egolatry and narcissism where the individual relates to themselves as a divinity or a supreme ideal. In moral analysis and psychoanalysis, the term goes beyond simple vanity, describing a profound spiritual rupture whereby the ego becomes the sole object of worship, erasing any capacity for transcendence or genuine empathy towards others.
