| Abstract: | The intrapsychic mechanism of remission in a forensic psychiatric patient with narcissistic personality disorder and comorbid antisocial features is examined. The positive impact of a therapeutic and academic program on the patient’s development and recovery and correlated increase of true self-love is analyzed and discussed. Real self-love appeared to be associated with stable selfesteem and enhancement of self-insight, authenticity, and reality testing capacities. |
