If you ever wondered if your friends that post a ton of selfies is kind of crazy, it’s probably because they probably are suffering from a mental illness.

According to a recent study, people who post lots of selfies score higher on measures of narcissism and psychopathy.

From OSU News:

Fox emphasized that the results don’t mean that men who post a lot of selfies are necessarily narcissists or psychopaths. The men in the study all scored within the normal range of behavior – but with higher than average levels of these anti-social traits.

Results showed that posting more photos was related to narcissism and psychopathy, but psychopathy was not related to editing photos.

“That makes sense because psychopathy is characterized by impulsivity. They are going to snap the photos and put them online right away. They want to see themselves. They don’t want to spend time editing,” she said.

Fox will continue conducting more research to determine if the same personality issues also affect women. In addition, you should probably save her study and share it with your friends who overload your Facebook newsfeed or Instagram with selfies.
