This loss list from growing up with a narcissist, is spot on! Thank you for sharing…it is validating.

[@boutiquelove5391]

God bless you and your family endlessly. You may not fathom how you are helping women out there- you are an angel helping us❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I cry all the time. Sometimes memories come back of nasty things she said about me when I was a teenager. I was really slim and tall she told me I looked like something hung up on a nail. I felt skinny and ugly. She was ultra mean to my friends they felt uncomfortable coming to visit me. She embarrassed me a lot.

My "mother" definitely ruined my childhood & my future relationships. When will I stop hating her? She's 80 & nasty as ever.

My mom is still alive and I'm grieving it's very hard. I created my KZbin because journaling doesn't help but recording the videos help, hopefully I can reach others. This video was helpful

Thank you so much for video. I wish I had access to it decades ago. I am 60 and just about in the grieving phase now from a whole narc household and finding the grieving part very difficult so late in life when there is so much shared history. I went no contact with the mother and both siblings after my narc father passed a year ago when everything blew up. My mother was an enabler but she probably also has covert narc traits. Brother is a definite narc and the sister turned on me. She never had true empathy so probably also a covert. But it is the relationship with my mother which is the hardest to deal with. I wish also I had a better relationship with my own daughter. I have no idea what trauma I have inflicted on her for not having a role model myself. She is talking to me more now but I am very upset for not having been able to be a better mother.

@marian9410, I too can relate to your story, it is the same at 61 I’m just now feeling all of the emotions of the damage caused by my narcissistic parents. They are both alive so I can only imagine the chaos once one passes on. Hugs to you as this grieving of the parents that you never had or needed is so difficult.

[@marian9410]

@@AnnaConsiglio-tm6fk thank you for your kind words and sharing. Once a big narc parent passes, the power dynamic shifts. For me it caused even more scapegoating as the others were jostling to be on top. Love and blessings to you as well.

Whenever I try to share my grievance with my partner he tells me to move on already, what’s the difference between grieving and just me self pitying myself too much … sometimes the grief comes and their is that shock/ the reality of what my mom did to me .

[@thehealingdaughter]

Grief is a deep sorrow, especially caused by a significant loss. Grief typically follows a process of mourning and which leads acceptance and healing. Self-pity is an excessive, self-absorbed unhappiness over one's own troubles. feeling sorry for yourself and often includes a sense of helplessness and victimization. Unlike grief, self-pity can be more about feeling stuck in one's own misfortune rather than actively processing and healing from it.
