Not all mental abusers are. A narcissist is someone who suffers from a specific personality disorder called "Narcissistic Personality Disorder." This disorder is relatively rare.
Not all abusers suffer from the Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) - although many of them have narcissistic traits.

Are all abusers narcissistic or are all narcissists abusers?
Not all abusers are narcissists, but all narcissists are abusive. Thats right. Some abusers are BPD. Some are sociopaths. But all abusers have a personality disorder. All are selfish (to a dangerous degree). All lack empathy (when it gets in the way of their selfish desires..and there are innumerous desires, they are never satisfied).
What happens to people who are abusers?
You dont say what type of abuser, Although all abuse is wrong in the UK emotional- mental abuse is not considered a crime against an adult,even though it carries all the same risk to the victims mental health and wellbeing,In answer to your question(What happens to abusers) if they are not caught they go on to abuse others and if they are caught they get whats coming to them in terms of a prison sentence.

Are all mental abusers extremely cheap and don't want to spend their money unless absolutely necessary?
Mental abusers come in all shapes, sizes, races, cultures and some are actually very generous when the mood strikes them. However, some abusers use money, children and fear to control the victim of abuse. There isn't much he can do so go see a lawyer because 1/2 of everything is yours! Never forget that! You can also nail this sucker for part of his pension or any retirement plan he may have at work. Go for it and don't hang around and take this anymore. Good luck Marcy
Why do mental abusers change dramatically from being nice to being distant and upset?
Mental abusers often use tactics such as alternating between being nice and distant or upset to manipulate and control their victim. This behavior keeps the victim off balance and unsure of what to expect, making them more vulnerable and easier to control. It is a common tactic in abusive relationships to maintain power and control over the victim.
Do all narcissists have a disorder?
Not everyone who displays narcissistic traits has Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). It's important to distinguish between occasional self-centered behavior and a diagnosable mental health condition. A diagnosis of NPD involves a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and lack of empathy that causes distress or impairment in functioning.

Why isn't Stephen Harper in an insane asylum?
Because although he is a unintelligent, dogmatic, uncharismatic, narcissistic and all around poor leader, none of these things constitute mental illness serious enough for institutionalization to be needed.
Do narcissists admit to being substance abusers?
I do not think they do. They lack the ability to acceot that they are anything but right. My narcissistic ex-husband abused alcohol. Being a psychologist he came up with all sorts of intellectual theories to support his argument that he did not have a problem with alcohol. I believed him at the time as he had and still has a good job. Once you leave a narcissistic relationship you begin to unravel fact from fiction. FACT! Someone who drinks 20 units of alcohol every day has a problem!
Is it common for abusers never to apologize or hold themselves accountable for their actions?

How do you use the word narcissistic in a sentence?
The act of procreating and noticing the resemblance in your baby and comparing it to yourself is narcissistic. Believing you are above and better than all humans is much more narcissistic than is noticing a physical resemblance of yourself in your baby.
