First, you should read up on the disorder. There are dozens of good websites sponsored by well known hospitals and other respected institutions that sponsor web pages devoted to Narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder. If you have a good understanding of narcissism you will have the knowledge to deal with it more constructively. Here are a few pointers:
- keep your distance- don't get too close and do not let them into your personal life
- be practical about the disorder- you won't change them so step back whenever their narcissistic behavior rises to the surface
- define some limits- by not responding to inappropriate behavior you reinforce it
- avoid conflict
- do not try to argue or reason with them- your winning or convincing is counter to their world view- they will not allow it
- gain more understanding to enable you to work as constructively as possible
- give practical support when and if they ask for it
