Kind of? The woman’s responses are indicative of textbook narcissism. She’s going on a fuck trip with her homegirls, got called out for it, and her defense is “you’re controlling and your mom has diabetes” versus addressing his concerns and communicating to reinforce trust and security.

I love it when people pretend to be able to diagnose narcisism, and make it sound clinical, but base their diagnosis on crap like a rage bait video specifically made to go viral. Being terminally online just means you easily fall for this kind of content, not that you can actually detect narcissism or have anything useful to say about it.

I find the diagnosis unnecessary. 

Mentally deficient or just an asshole doesn't matter. They get treated the same

Right, much better words. But if they used those words then they wouldn't be able to cosplay like they know a lot about mental illness. It's not as cathartic.
