Nightmare Moon's darkness may have been possessive but it started out as her jealousy of Celestia and the day, which was then magnified by an outside force and merged with darkness to become Nightmare Moon. Which I guess is kinda different from Sunset Shimmer, the closest to an "outside force" was the crown and what was in her that manifested into the pure evil form (or Superpowered Evil Side) wasn't jealousy, but outright cruelty and thirst for power. Which didn't really need to be mixed with darkness because it was dark enough, just not fully dominant until she became a demon.
