Yes, they do. The only regret I have in life is the wasted time waiting for the narcissist to grow into a mature conscious adult. I have learned once a person has developed into a full-blown malignant narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath, they will never change and we must walk away and keep our distance from them to protect ourselves.
These malignant people would rather kill and be killed than face their own painful truths and childhood repression.
These words by Alice Miller come to mind: "The unconscious compulsion to revenge repressed injuries is more powerful than reason. That is the lesson that all tyrants teach us. One should not expect judiciousness from a mad person motivated by compulsive panic. One should, however, protect oneself from such a person." Alice Miller -- Breaking Down the Wall of Silence page 82
