“It’s the grief” that right there is my validation. I can’t do my childhood over, the grief over the loss of innocence, the grief of never having a bonding relationship with my parents. The grief over the loss of hope. Now comes acceptance, which can, at least for me, take years of unraveling finding the correct version of me. It’s liberating! It’s a battle and a march. My discovery was overwhelming at first, but by and by I’m learning to calm down and recognise it wasn’t me, after all.

It’s the grief of losing YEARS because of the worst family I was born into. I almost got out when I was in high school by creating my own set of friends, social life & everything and I was pulled into a hell lot of drama by my narcissistic sibling. What went on for years after that was pure emotional & mental abuse. Both my father & my sibling was the most vile creatures I’ve ever met who put me through so much misery that it hurts to till date. The drama, chaos, fights & pure evilness has taken over my life. I fell into the trap by isolating myself from society only to fall into the trap of another person who was a covert narcissist. I forgot how cool I really am. I forgot for 8 years my goals, my dreams, my core values. They intended to take me down but wanted my life as their blueprint. Imagine forgetting who you are for 8 years & being in total confusion.

That was a very enlighening program, thank you very much. I suffered from a narsisistic mother for 58 yrs and finally I realized its not me! When I was doing my Phd and working full time, my mom would call me to ask for help organizing her shoes and if I said I have a paper to finish she would hang up on my face and complain my brothers how unhelpful I was. Interestingly she would never do any of the things she did to me to my brothers. It was always me. Recently she accused me of wanting her dead to get her inheritance at a family breakfast and my younger brother intervened and said that was unfair. I still let some time pass and visited her at home. When she opened the door she said “I want you to keep away from me”. That was it, I m not talking to her anymore & its liberating…

There is huge grief in getting caught in the web of a narcissist. I was raised by a mother who is a narcissist and who has been my lifelong attacker. I agree. Finding greater meaning to these dynamics is imperative. I learned how not to treat people, and as a result, I’m really proud of the parent and human I have become. My empathy and compassion are off the charts. I’ve recently gone non contact at the age of 59. It has taken a decade of introspection and healing to strengthen my boundaries and prioritize my needs. It feels good to be free of her physically. But I’m still weaning myself off of the mental defences my mind created in response to the dynamics of the abuse. I got a lot of benefit from understanding complex childhood trauma. The work we do on healing our past traumas is what helps us bring awareness to the patterns we developed as a means to cope. The efforts to heal ourselves are so worth the journey. ❤

Over 3 decades of Narcissistic Abuse... the abuse was right out the gate! My biggest mistake was not honoring my worth and betraying myself and character. Subtle and insidious bit by bit... the over the top actions, gestures, comments, were beyond dizzying and effective. I am grateful I began journaling at a young age, and have stayed consistent with my journaling. Towards the end of 2003 I took the time to sit down and review the entries I made in my journals and began piecing together his abusive behavior and the tactics he used and the vicious cycle that kept going in circles. Like a fool, I stuffed the red flags very early on prior to marriage, the love bombing and intense push to rev up the intensity of the relationship. The cunning CON ARTIST ABUSIVE NARCISSIST was extremely adept with his vile bag of abusive tactics. I recall seeing similar behaviors with his brother and sister and connecting the dots was eye opening and a critical piece to the puzzle. One day I finally had enough and I told him to his face that "he disgusted me" as he was walking out the door to work. That was the day I took my power back and honored my worth.

The loss of an idea about something or someone is difficult to work through, but it's honesty and honesty is the first thing that helps heal. Honesty is acceptance. When I saw how they treated relationships and themselves, I realized this is what they were doing to me. I just stood in that path. Since I've removed myself and started to become more focused on myself, slowly things turned around. Now, I see them for who they are and I am so happy that I accepted honesty over some false sense of who they might be, could be and should be. Dr Ramani was the pioneer in my recovery. She helped me to see who they are and what their behavior was doing to me.

But now I know that she’s been this way sense before she started smoking weed. Because I never took the time to think back to see this, because my mother said that it’s just sibling rivalry. But I never did those horrible things to her. Her behavior has always been malicious, manipulative, rage full and belittling ( on the sly ). Downplaying the horrible experiences she put me through.

"According to whom?" That's it. The question I'm dealing with relating to my mom. I confronted her about her negativity and demeaning things she's said to me over the years, and the emotional chaos and abuse of my childhood. Her response was that she was very hurt by how terrible I apparently think of her. That she didn't think anything was wrong. She even said "it's like we're living in two different realities". :O I have tried really hard to give her benefit of the doubt, to give her grace because she had far worse awful abusive childhood from her own mom, so yes she was much better than that, and she uses that to this day as a thing to make herself feel better. But she has been the negative focus of every life event of mine, and has questioned or mocked every life choice I've made. I've been in therapy for over ten years, she tried but then left saying to me she's "a big girl" now and "graduated from therapy". She really thinks she's not that bad. I would compare her to Joan Crawford. She says, "I don't even know what I'm doing wrong." And I told her, "maybe that's a sign...?" She was just confused, "Of what..?"

@@trishellis1908 A voice of reason and insight in the comment section! Yes, a narcissist will never admit to wrong, will turn your words around and take offense, and you (the adult child of a narcissist) will feel even worse. Narcissists are not capable of validating the feelings of another. They are capable of *invalidating* them. Wish I could hug the person who made the original post and let her know her mother will never be able to see her value. Adult children of narcissists need to develop their own sense of value, AWAY from the abusive parent.

I like the way she said that lift the hope out. That doesn't seem that painful right now. Nice way to put it. I have a few narcissist surrounding me. I work with one. my friend kept saying, just pretend hes dead. That made sense to.😊

She is amazing! She gave me the strength to ACCEPT that change isn't going to happen, and, if by some TINY chance, it does... Cool, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO WAIT AROUND FOR IT! IT'S NOT MY JOB! So freeing.
