    This was my life for years, along with a covert narcissist sister, until I finally quit playing along. That's when all Hell broke loose. A narcissist doesn't like it when you stop being her emotional supply. I've moved far away and have little contact and I don't have any expectations or desires about having any familial ties with them. What they do or say has no effect on me anymore.

    I need to give myself permission to not need to have the family that I’ve always wished I had. I want to not want them. I need to look outside all the hurt and start living the life that I can create. I have a long ways to go.... I am done being miserable and stop being addicted to this misery!

    This is one of my favorite videos because It has all you need to overcome your problems. Acknowledging the inner child's influence in your present days problems is the key. Reminding yourself that you are an adult now, you have choices that that helpless child (that you were)never had is sometimes all you need to keep yourself in the present. The present is where you want to be! Thank you so much Jerry Wise for your wonderful videos that help so many people to be happier.

    I had to go no contact with my family of origin because I no longer wanted to be their scapegoat. My narcissistic DIL launched a smear campaign against me because of her injury and rage and turned my family against me. There were problems long before she entered the picture but after grieving, I had more inner peace. Because of some issues with our estate, I will have to go home for a short visit but boundaries are in place and will have an exit plan if necessary. Expectations are low and will not engage in any discussion that incites irrational reaction. I am not wrestling with pigs and getting dirty. My son is married to a malignant narcissist who can convolute reality and people are duped. He is so blindsided and trauma bonded but we are communicating better but my boundaries are firmly in place. I no longer need the approval of the family system or their flying monkeys but aware that members of my family of origin will not change. Observing and not absorbing is the best way to avoid the drama especially this holiday season.

      It is soooo hard but justifying and defending just creates opposition, we get sucked into their game. To the people believing their smear campaign, you stand proud and stay in your power and simply say (even if it’s just energetically in your own head ❤️) “those things aren’t true and I’m sorry your listening to that.”

    What ever I have done in my life was to impress my family, I worked and gave money and everything I had. I build my life around my father he was like God to me. Until I moved away then I started to realise that was me that used to reache to them, it was me that phoned and cares. They stabbed me at the back but I allways looked for them for excuses. But now I can't anymore, my glass is full of pain and rejection. I still question myself why, I know I will never get answers. This video is helping me a lot I watch it over and over and I m still watching it...because I m still hurting. Its been a month now since I stoped talking to them.....

  • @user-ee5om8wy7u
    @user-ee5om8wy7u 3 роки тому +4

    True! I felt neglected, emotionally traumatized. It hurt. Sometimes I wonder if I just expected too much.....Or was it too much? It doesn't matter really. Whether I was too entitled/selfish or too neglected/ignored- it hurts either way due to unmet needs/wants/expectations. I miss my parents so much. I feel like I never had enough of them. But they are who they are. It was my illusion and fantasy that one day they'd pay attention to me and my feelings and would naturally want to be interested in me. What a stupid idea it was! It will never likely to happen if it hadn't already occurred in the last 4 decades. Chances are that in the next 4 decades they'll wakeup and realize they want me in their life are so small that I'd better stop waiting.
    They are too busy with their own life to even think about me - and I need to let go of that idea that parents must naturally desire to stay connected with me and to stay in touch with me forever. It is my one-sided attachment, one-sided yearning and longing and missing them that causes the pain in me. The only way to stop the pain is to stop missing them and wanting them to miss me too. For that to happen, I need to cut off my attachment to them. I'm working on it now. I'm grieving the death of my illusion of my parents and I wish to release the emotional pain. Then, once I finish grieving, I will be able to accept reality in peace and become my own self-loving parent.

    Wow, this sounds exactly like my situation for many years, until I drew back from all of them. I now have an very mean older brother who is attempting to come back into my life after losing my parents as his narcissistic supply. I confronted him years ago to tell him all the ways he hurt me, he yelled at me, never apologized for anything and continues his same antics. He has tried to draw my husband to his side through guilt tripping me and very "nice" to my husband while continuing his sneaky rudeness against me. I have visited with him twice and decided that he is not coming back in, unless there is a blatant apology, in the proper brokenness over his sin against me. I do not expect this to happen, because he has been using the "sweet/mean" cycle off and on all our lives, it always turns out badly. I have lost all desire for family after 65 years of ugly, I feel like running when anyone tries to come back into my life.

    • @flamingrobin5957
      @flamingrobin5957 6 років тому

      try learning to take the reigns by turning the accusations and judgement back on him. if you're "mean" for saying no or telling the truth. ask him if he's ever been "mean" by telling the truth.....this forces them to look at themselves instead of being your judge. jesus did this with the religious pharisees...who were "looking through the log in their own eye at the speck in someone elses eyes. boundaryless people project the blame and scapegoat others instead of owning their badness. if they bring up your badness to control you then get freedom by switching the subject to "are they guilty of the same thing themselves" they may be angry but you've take the power back and turned the accusations back to their own conscience. give them grace when they are humble and non judgemental. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. "judgement without mercy will be shown to everyone who has not been merciful"

    • @flamingrobin5957
      @flamingrobin5957 6 років тому

      give them the choice to love or deal in good, bad, right wrong. you can't love and judge and criticize at the same time. if they judge you hold them to the same standard they hold you to. and show kindness and mercy to humble people in front of them.

    • @flamingrobin5957
      @flamingrobin5957 6 років тому

      make sure you yourself are trusting jesus to justify you and forgive you. the Law will condemn you and your conscience if you are not first freed from its condemnation. so make sure you admit your own faults and bring them to God to be justified first.

    So many parallels in your opening story about the client from the fragmented family who felt used and abandoned.
    As my mother moves closer to dying, this being despite the fact that she was the perpetrator for much of the family problems, she did bring us more together but it's superficial. My siblings really hate me surprise I the youngest but that does not always mean the maligned one. In my case it does. Adding to this comment as I view this video.
    How these heightened hope and expectations were woven into the tapestry of my life outside family of origin. This is timely and that I have been working on lowering my expectations fairly recently and discussing it with other people who I know and who are interested in personal growth.
    I like the examples of differentiating between wants and needs.
    This is providing me ways to soothe myself in a constructive way and not become the crisis,or event,problem
    Thankyou so much 💐

She wanted my son and other daughter to keep it from me. I eventually expressed my hurt to my son and damaged my relationship somewhat with him. I have moved from that town and the same daughter recently moved her family to son's town and made him and other sister keep secret from me .. younger sister in tears from keeping the secret again. I recently told son to please don't worry about my feelings. I continue to learn.

    Acceptance! So wise Gerry, literally! I think many people who get stuck on forgiveness (me) do better to practice acceptance. I find it good practice to be grateful for anything you can feel gratitude for and to work on not being entitled, we are not entitled to anything. It is best to accept things as they are in reality and to walk away from things that are hurtful and harmful to us because it is them with the toxic personality/abusive behavior. Usually all we need to work on is seeing the (usually) dark truth and accepting it! Thank you for the video.

For example if someone tells a joke and others are laughing I will laugh too even though I am not feeling the happiness of the joke. When with my famipoy of origin I just cannot feel.

    I’m at the point where I’ve completely let go of the idea of what my family will be for me. I’ve given up on them, similarly to how they gave up on me. It’s just that now, I still feel my family hunger sabotaging me. I look for a family in my friends, and of course they can’t be that, because they already have their own family. I want them to throw away their own for me… I feel a part of me say that that’s the least I deserve after everything but I know realistically they won’t do that for me. So I leave them. It’s a cycle, and I can’t end it. I don’t know another way to fill this hole

    OMG. I've been working through a difficult time after realizing my older brother and my mother have always worked as a team to do almost exactly what Jerry's client experienced.
    I can understand and do gray rock to manage, and I feel I've made great strides in the practical sense of how to get through actual interactions.
    But I was just wondering why, even with this understanding, I still think about getting the chance to explain to Mom how much it hurt that she mocked me in front of my nieces and nephews at Thanksgiving, "forgot" to invite me on the extended family vacation, shows no interest in major events in mine and my own family's life, etc.
    Viola: I have family hunger! This describes it perfectly. My hunger is the result of Mom's persistent, irrational expectation of the Norman Rockwell family. Ironically, my grandiose narcissistic older brother's bullying of me, Mom, cousins, aunts and uncles (Mom's siblings) has always been the flaw in her "perfect" inner fantasy, and I always assumed the role of compensating for that alongside Mom. Since childhood I've had that role, with family, teachers, coaches, etc who expected me to be as problematic as he was.
    I've never realized that in the process,, I adopted Mom's irrational standard as my own.

    May I add, something to this wonderful talk of yours. TD JAKES preached on if they do not want to be part of you, let them go....and i believe that. In the bible 1 John 2:19
    They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us, but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.
    Dont beg people to stay in your life, if they leave they were never there for you in the first place. WONDERFUL SERVICE OF T D JAKES., God has something better for us, then people who do not want to be part of us.

    I may jumping the gun here but just occurred to me that.. if I stop blaming my self, if I break the chain system create an extreme fear. Because is no use to believe my family will change. But if I change i won't be of use for them any more. Won't change my life or wounds to be heal... but will confirmed all the years of hearing that I am unlovable, unworthy. Feel heartbreaking to realise yesterday I was a supply ... now I am not even that as I am sure they find another

    I'm the youngest of 10 children. Zero contact for 30+ years except with our mother...and now she is 91, they have stopped contact with her. The competition and jealously between siblings toward me is sickening.
    I have 5 grown children of my own, and due to divorce poison 17 years old, we have no contact either. Graduations, marriages, moving away, and even deaths have occurred and still, nothing. I'm the only common denominator. I've struggled with cancer, homelessness, and all sorts of needs but does nothing to heal my family or draw them near. In fact, we do not even know where one another live, phone numbers, etc. My mother will die soon. That will leave me 100% alone in this world.
    Is there any way to ever begin healing any of these relationships? All these years have passed without me chasing anyone... or one person reaching out to me. I have asked for a Facebook chat from extended family and not responded to. So... I just don't know.

      Truth
      I am also the youngest.....left to take care of both parents while they go on in self-absorption. Many excuses are given for their zero assistance and lack of care. The only One we can be sure of and count on is God/Jesus. He is VERY real. He is our true home and true family is found only there with Him and those who also choose Him. That is where Heaven is! No joke.

      There are good, sweet, sane people out there, who are relaxed about their own flaws and can be accepting of your flaws. I haven't found terribly many of these extremely safe people, and it takes some searching, but they do exist! I think it is better to seek these safe people than to knock yourself out reaching for emotionally withholding, unkind, controlling people.

    Had massive problems with my Inlaws - both Narcs. Trained/modelled my Husband into Narc.traits. I got rid in 2015 - after calling them out BIG STYLE ! Husband rarely sees them ... avoidant...but sometimes when after being on the phone with them ... he is tense and distracted to the point of being quite negligent and dangerous. This ... I address promptly - even though it is met with some anger, I am very sure - I am not the target anymore.

    I listened to 2 of these videos while I was playing a game. I might blend the videos with my comment. I would just say my denial was so thick that I do not want to get my family out of me. I think I commented on my previous comment about how I am recreating my family dynamic. I really do think the pain causes me to do a different action now. You talked about conflict. You also talked about accepting them and not changing them. I think I get free from the dynamic knowing that I can't win but also that they can't control me. I can choose how I spend my time and energy.

    Great suggestion in #12. When my dad was dying I was in 12 step recovery programs or had been for a while they were very helpful. When somebody finally dies I guess that's going to be the real test for me right now with my mom and then dealing with my sisters or not dealing with them anymore by their choice probably more than mine.
    I'm looking into grief groups I'm doing a lot of grief work on channels like yours. There's a lot to see here but I've narrowed it down to less than a handful of wise ones. Lol

      wow, what a reply, first of all, I live in europe, and most aware of its customs, and paradoxes, however, I will never be ashamed, to say I am a believer, and I will never be shy of stating so. quite the opposite we are taught biblical to always profess the name of the lord. Please do not put me in the same catagory of those flying monkeys and the people who hurt you the most. RELIGION, is hated by God and is manmade, and please also do not put God in the midst of things. It is not his fault that He has followers, who are false. People are supposed to sin, and if you expect someone not to sin, then you have the problem, we should be ever forgiving, and ever paticient, so please put this where they should be. If its rude to tell people who their God is, THEN THE WHOLE HAS LOST ITS PLOT IN LIFE. That should be our alpha and omega, and then the rest including all that is said in this video. So I will not apologise for asking someone if they believed in God or not, as to me that is the most important thing of all.

    I think this is all well and good if you have the level of toxicity where there’s just bitching, moaning and gossiping. But if there’s constant disrespect of boundaries and abuse I think it is important to absolutely stay safe and cut yourself off. That’s not a time where you should be neutral or gloss over whether or not your feelings are real.

    • @jerrywise
      @jerrywise  2 роки тому +2

      Every situation is unique and could have unique circumstances. Often when we learn to differentiate our real feelings vs the feelings we were taught to feel by our (dysfunctional) family, the family's toxicity could be less threatening to us.
