Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD)

A personality disorder where people overestimate one’s self as well as having an inflated option of themselves.  They are often unhappy and disappointed when they do not gain the admiration and attention of others when they believe they deserve it.  Other people may see them as snobbish for constantly expecting praise or special favors for things that do not deserve it.
