Narcissists do not want to admit their flaws and weaknesses, so they protect themselves by pushing aside uncomfortable truth, admitting only to the qualities that keep them looking good. Dr. Les Carter discusses the defense mechanism of splitting, which is an offshoot of their binary thinking. Seeing this, you can understand why they have consistently poor coping skills.
