Abstract:
Our society is experiencing a collective of dramatic personality disorders derived from uncontrolled anxiety. The most evident symptoms are incoherent behavior, lack of apparent perception, immaturity with compulsive traits. In this sense, the importance of the theme is presented in its interaction with the way of relating and constituting itself produced by the contemporary social imaginary. The main objective of the work is the analysis of how the phenomenon of narcissism is manifested in Western culture, having as specific objectives the investigation of brain alterations, they present in pathological narcissists and the neurotransmitters involved. For this, in order to prove the author's concept, the methodology of literature review with articles published in the last 10 years is used. Finally, the importance of the theme is confirmed by its presence in many spheres of life, including the personal, work, education, sport and virtuality, among others.
