A manipulative personality disorder is a coping mechanism that permits the person to get ahead in life without having to put in any work.

The Manipulator may be aware of their manipulation, or unaware and blind to their willful use of deceit.

The term “manipulator personality disorder” is incorrectly named.

It should be called a coping mechanism since it is not an illness in the sense that something has gone wrong with the person who has this trait.

It is more of a way to push ahead in life without having to do much effort.

The manipulator personality will utilize their words and emotions to play on the feelings and make the person do things for them without them realizing what they are doing until it is too late.

They will often ask for favors from people (victims) or try to guilt-trip others into giving up something or taking care of certain tasks for them when they do not want to do it themselves.

If a person is constantly being manipulated by someone who has a manipulative personality disorder, then the person should ask if it is worth it.

The most effective people in life are often the ones who are the most manipulative.

They are familiar with how to get what they want without having to put in any effort.

Manipulation indicates behaviors a person uses to gain power or influence over another.

These tactics often are attempts to injure another person's emotional and mental well-being.

Emotional manipulation involves the dynamics of a relationship.

A manipulator often takes part in harmful behaviors over time, causing an imbalance of power.

The effect can be destructive, leaving a person feeling perplexed, isolated, or even depressed.

A manipulative personality disorder is a mental disorder that induces people to manipulate others for their own gain.

People with this disorder are often very charming and friendly, making them appear like they are easy to get along with.

Behind their facade, they are proficient at manipulation and control.

This disorder also induces people to be excessively selfish and self-centered.

They are always looking for ways to obtain what they want, even if it suggests hurting others.

They are often very good at ways of lying and manipulation.

Introduction

I have been writing medical articles for my blog: http://kennethkee.blogspot.com (A Simple Guide to Medical Disorder) for the benefit of my patients since 2007.

My purpose in writing these simple guides was for the health education of my patients.

Health Education was also my dissertation for my Ph.D (Healthcare Administration).

I then wrote an autobiography account of my journey as a medical student to family doctor on my other blog: http://afamilydoctorstale.blogspot.com.

This autobiography account A Family Doctor’s Tale was combined with my early A Simple Guide to Medical Disorders into a new Wordpress Blog A Family Doctor’s Tale on http://kenkee481.wordpress.com.

From which many free articles from the blog was taken and put together into 800 eBooks.

Some people have complained that the simple guides are too simple.

For their information they are made simple in order to educate the patients.

The later books go into more details of medical disorders.

The first chapter is always from my earlier blogs which unfortunately tends to have typos and spelling mistakes.

Since 2013, I have tried to improve my spelling and writing.

As I tried to bring the patient the latest information about a disorder or illness by reading the latest journals both online and offline, I find that I am learning more and improving on my own medical knowledge in diagnosis and treatment for my patients.

My diagnosis and treatment capability has improved tremendously from my continued education.

Just by writing all these simple guides I find that I have learned a lot from your reviews (good or bad), criticism and advice.

I am sorry for the repetitions in these simple guides as the second chapters onwards have new information as compared to my first chapter taken from my blog.

I also find repetition definitely help me and maybe some readers to remember the facts in the books more easily.

I apologize if these repetitions are irritating to some readers.

How to Identify a Manipulative Personality Disorder?

If the person believes that someone the person knows has a manipulative personality disorder, there are some revealing signs to look for.

Here are some red flags:

1. Controlling Nature

There are several methods manipulative people attempt to control those around them.

They might attempt to control the conversation by interrupting others or talking over them.

They might also make demands of others and anticipate them to be met without any negotiation.

Manipulative people also attempt to play games with other people’s emotions.

They might say things that they know will distress someone or make them feel guilty.

They often use smooth talk and praises to manipulate others into doing what they want.

2. Lack of Empathy

Manipulative people often do not have empathy for others.
