Do narsissists get depressed and if so what are the signs?
I work with (and quite possibly, soon, FOR) a narcissist and I believe I have seen him go through bouts of depression, but I would not say it is depression as most of us would define it. It is more like days of being "down." He gets quiet, the arrogance and boasting and wanting to be the center of attention are temporarily gone. He is not loud and obnoxious or bragging about one thing or another. He keeps to himself. But these times do not last more than a day or two at a time and they are rare. I would not call it a "clinical depression," only a temporary depression.

Samuel Adams and John Hancock were pivotal figures in the early stages of the American Revolution, particularly in Boston. Adams, as a master propagandist, effectively rallied public sentiment against British rule through his leadership in the Sons of Liberty and his role in organizing protests, such as the Boston Tea Party. Hancock, a wealthy merchant, used his influence and resources to support revolutionary activities, and his prominence made him a symbol of colonial resistance. Together, their efforts galvanized support for independence and set the stage for the confrontations that would ignite the revolution.
