My impression currently is that the narcissist actually benefits from the dialling down of those empathic traits as this is likely to provide them with fuel (i.e.empath’s anger, jealousy, etc.) Either way they benefit. Another reason to get a handle on emotional thinking.
From an empathic perspective it’s good to know there is an explanation for us behaving like the narcissist. It frees us from torturing ourselves with guilt and anxiety in the circumstances. In all honesty, I’ve often felt justified in my reactions, so less guilt and anxiety for me. It’s takes a lot to get me to that point, so when I do all bets are off.

Interesting to see the difference and the explanation of how an empath’s reduced empathy allows the narcissistic traits to come to the fore.
