Why Is Self-Respect So Important?: Narcissists

Self-respect involves believing in one's own worth and dignity, and preserving one's self-esteem. Without self-respect, people are more vulnerable to being taken advantage of by narcissists and manipulated into situations that compromise their well-being. Maintaining self-respect is crucial because it impacts all areas of life by ensuring one demands fair treatment from others and does not neglect their own needs, dreams or true self.

SELF RESPECT

Self-respect is a word that means honoring your worth, preserving


your dignity, and taking pride in your abilities. Being self-
respecting means that you believe at a core level that you’re
worthy of being treated fairly and with courtesy.

Why is self-respect so important?

Without self-respect, we are susceptible to being used, abused,


and mistreated by other people. Those who lack self-respect
are often targets of unsavory types of people
like narcissists and egomaniacs who enjoy using self-
neglecting people as their lackeys. And who in their right mind
would want to end up as fodder for those ratbags lurking in the
dark corners of society?

Ultimately, self-respect is vital because it impacts every area of


your life.

From your friendships and relationships to your work


commitments, having self-respect ensures that you are treated
well, given fair opportunities, have your needs and desires met,
and remain on equal footing with other people. With no self-
respect, you are prone to excessive self-sacrifice, letting yourself
be walked over and used, abandoning your true self and
authentic needs, giving up on your dreams, and other forms of
self-abuse.
