full of oneself

Drunk on ego

Full of oneself describes someone excessively self-satisfied or convinced of their own importance.

The phrase suggests an inflated ego that crowds out awareness of others: He's so full of himself he didn't notice everyone rolling their eyes.

Someone full of themselves talks too much about their achievements and assumes others share their high self-regard.
