Why Cerebral Narcissist Becomes Somatic (Aging, Death)

Cerebral narcissism is a relatively stable construct across the lifespan. It involves early life sublimation so massive and all-pervasive that it renders the cerebral asexual, all but eradicating his sex drive (arrested sexual development).

Sensing his abnormality, potential sex partners shun the often creepy and robotic cerebral. In return, he conjures up a defensive ideology: celibacy is evidence of superior strength and women are contemptible.

Cerebrals become somatic following a collapse: when they can no longer garner supply by placing their intellect on public display or when offered opportunities to obtain quick fixes of narcissistic supply via sex.

As somatics, erstwhile cerebrals resemble sex addicts: from zero to hero.

But there is another reason for such s startling transformation: age and looming death.

The cerebral narcissist attempts to deny his age and fend off his ineluctable demise by having sex, preferably with much younger partners.

The cerebral being a narcissist, the sex is compulsive and autoerotic (masturbatory). The partners are mostly fungible and forgettable except when they are mentally ill (borderlines, for example) and cater to the narcissist’s grandiosity as a “healer” or “fixer”.

The shared fantasies then offered to these partners often incorporate a fresh start typical of younger ages: relocation, marriage, children, incessant travel, or a long-term relationship.

The cerebral turned somatic frantically thrashes about, trying to make up for lost time and missed sexual and romantic opportunities.

But as he inexorably declines, it becomes harder and harder to maintain the delusional self-deception and the cerebral ends up, often alone, in a degenerative schizoid state.
