narcissism
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)

Mental disorder characterized by extreme self-absorption, an exaggerated sense of self-importance, and a need for attention and admiration from others. First identified by Havelock Ellis in 1898, the disorder is named for the mythological Narcissus, who fell in love with his own reflection. In addition to an inflated self-image and addiction to fantasy, narcissism is characterized by an unusual coolness and composure, which is shaken only when the narcissistic confidence is threatened, and by the tendency to take others for granted or to exploit them. According to Sigmund Freud, narcissism is a normal stage in children's development, but it is considered a disorder when it occurs after puberty.

I would say anyone who wants to be noticed, which as has already been said, pols, actors/actresses, dancers, athletes, etc. The world is full of them. It's a common ailment among humans.

One version of the Narcissus myth is that he had a twin sister that he loved but unfortunately she died. He stared at his own reflection in water because it reminded him of her.


Hey Doc ..... didn't I ever tell ya about my twin sister?


It can't possibly be you, wabbit. You see, Narcissus and his twin sister were both beautiful.

The description fits me except for the "exaggerated sense of self-importance" bit. You see, my feelings of self-importance are fully justified.
