    A narcissistic parent is worse than being in a relationship with one. But the deafening moment that crushes you is when you finally realize that’s what they are. The jealousy, control, lack of support, looks of disgust, inability to be emotionally available to you, lack of respect, crushes you because it feels a millimeter short of hatred.

    Not only my mother, but also my father is a narcissist. When I found this out, I understood why I never felt loved and why I never felt like I belonged in my family (I was the scapegoat in my childhood and now I'm the invisible child). I found out this 6 months ago, and since then my life has been a living hell 💔

      I've only had neurotic or narcissistic partners in my life, but my last abuser is a full blown Narcissist with the exact same type of "covert" Narcissism my mother has. I litterally saved my life from his invisible abuse. It's the same with Johnny Depp, btw. AH has the same NPD his mother had, that's why it ended so bad, like never before, for me and him

    Great video 💯 Here are the actions and behaviors my Mom has done:
    When I was about 10, she got extremely angry because I wanted to start picking out my own clothes to wear. She wanted me to wear what she wanted. This is entitlement.
    At age 12, I hurt my back badly. She never checked on me. Just told me to lie on the bed. This is a lack of empathy.
    Through my teen years she often gave me dirty looks, and then gaslight me by saying: "You're imagining things, you're so sensitive."
    At age 25 she gave me the silent treatment because I didn't need a ride home from work. She literally had a tantrum because I was getting a taxi instead of letting her give me a lift. She ignored me for about 2 weeks.
    She was the master of the silent treatment, from my childhood to adulthood. Of course, she'd act like nothing happened, and it happened so often.
    Once when I was on a diet, she turned up at my house with some unhealthy food. When I said "thank you, but you know I'm on a diet" she raged at me and called me ungrateful. She just didn't want me looking nice of being healthier. She always commented on my appearance.
    At age 28, when I got qualifications from college, she was quiet and very unsupportive. Then all over her social media she uploaded pictures of how great her daughter is. This is attention seeking. She was never proud or happy for me, just glad that she could use it for attention.
    At age 30 I had a tough time financially, and she helped out. But during this time she was very controlling. Making it seem like she was better than me just because I was going through a struggle. Then she hated it when I got a job.
    💯 Narcissistic parents are hell, but the thing is, most of it just doesn't make any sense. You can't even tell anyone. People would look at you like you're 'crazy' if trying to explain. Also, my Mom has great moments where she seems nice.. so it's very confusing.
    8:22 is very true. I always got that said to me. Videos like this are very validating, thank you 🙏🏻

    My mom was a narcissist. I grew up being SA and she knew about it and allowed it to happen. In fact, she sent me for visits with my perpetrator, my father, knowing what he was doing. Then later she used it to get sympathy from her friends while telling me I was being a baby for crying, or that it was my fault. When her 3rd husband began his SA on me, she became jealous and said I was breaking up the family because I didn't want to live with him and continue to be SA'd. I never mattered to her. I was just her maid and babysitter. She said a lot of really horrible things to me. I carry that with me today.

    I always knew my relationship with my mother was different…. It honestly didn’t hit me until I left my abusive relationship recently . The level of support I haven’t received is honestly sad when I think about it. I’ve learned to give her grace because of her childhood but at the same time I make sure to protect my peace. I simply don’t engage with her if I feel she won’t take accountability or if she’s going to cause me distress in anyway. This really hit home .

    THIS IS ON POINT! My mother would stare at me for hours (she was admiring her creation)! I looked like her, but couldn't be more different, which caused a TON of conflict. She could not understand why I would act so differently when to her, I should be a mini her. Also, absolutely NO privacy! She would walk in while I was in the bathroom ALL THE TIME! The lock never worked and I'm sure that was her doing. She expected everyone - strangers included - kowtow to her. Her needs ALWAYS came first!

    ALL ABOSOLUTELY TRUE. My Momma is 84 years old and my siblings have never been allowed to be friends. We have always been pigeon holed into our roles and pitted against one another. It wasn't until recently that I realized that my relationships with people with Narc tendencies comes from me being more comfortable being abused than I am with a healthy person. I actually don't know that I have been with a mentally healthy person until recently. I'm 49. Therapy works y'all. Thank you for all that you do.

    Yes as they get older they do get worse. Thanx Lee for sharing this video.

    My mother is a narcissist. Some weird stuff she did:
    1. I was not allowed to be sad or cry. She yelled at me and told me to stop when I was caught crying. When my puppy got hit by a car and died, she claimed that I was crying too much.
    2. She indeed competed with me. I was slim and rather beautiful as a teenager. She kept telling me how she was slimmer and way more beautiful than me at my age.
    3. I went to extracurricular art classes. She always pointed out all the flaws in my work. Never told anything nice.
    4. I was bullied in middle school. When I wanted to go to another school for high school, she berated me and told why would I think I won’t be bullied in there.
    5. My father was a sadist and a sociopath. She blamed me for being abused by him.
    6. She forced me to endure vile abuse and play along with her happy family game, because her appearances are more important than lives of her children.
    7. When I started protesting against the abuse as a teenager, she sent me to psyciatrist, but lied to her that I’ve gone crazy out of the blue, and she is very worried about me. The psychiatrist berated me for making my mother’s life so hard with my bad behaviour.
    8. When I cut her off a few years ago, she started telling to other people that I was mentally unstable and haven’t explained why I did it and she has no idea why I’m not talking to her and she is very worried, because I had a birth trauma that causes my behaviour. In reality I sent her an e-mail explaining my decision.

      That is a very typical default smear and projection that a narcissistic abuser resorts to - that you are "insane" or mentally deficient in some way for not tolerating their abuse, but when they pitch their story to other people they leave out the part about their abuse.

    I had my bedroom door taken off as a teen as a consequence. Did not like it much, but never thought my parent was being narcissistic. Years later have a child who does not have a door because he damaged it. Not choosing to leave no door because I don’t want him to have privacy but leaving without a door because he needs to learn he can’t keep destroying my house. Want a bedroom door? Don’t break it.

    My mother is a covert, religious narcissist. It was terrible. For YEARS I slept with the door LOCKED to my bedroom because one time I found her in the middle of the night in my room, digging through my stuff to find a stupid paper contract (handwritten) she MADE me sign. And when we would visit her side of the family, she would always remind me how to act because we really were a reflection of her. And I had to share not only a room, but a BED with her. For a month. I am very low contact with her to this day.

    My mom hates that I have always been overweight, and loved it. I had men, I knew how to shop (even though I didn't like it), nothing held me back. There was nothing she could say or do to make me look to her for validation. I liked almost everything she did not and even that bothered her.
    I'm learning thather mother used to play the siblings against each other game, threw gifts on the floor in the closet, told other siblings one is not taking care of her well enough. She even told me, through my mom (triangulation) "if you lose weight, I'll send you some clothes." I decided I'll never be getting clothes from her. I was never hurt. I just accepted these people are not capable of being mothers, loving, caring, giving, etc. I figured it out at 12 years old. Thank you, strength from the universe, I've always had dogs/animals and actually learned true love. Grudges/resentment was never modeled to me by those I respected. My dad allowed a level of autonomy but he was a pedophile so there was that level of no boundaries. Surprisingly, I am thankful my mom abandoned me at 10 y/o to him. My mom has messed up my head more in the 17 years I have been caring for her since she has a chronic disease. I am so ready to go no contact if she decides she's a narc and refuses to drop the behavior.

  • @lovefaith6285
    @lovefaith6285 2 місяці тому

    My mom's favorite thing to tell me is how "hateful and ungrateful" I am when she doesn't get her way. She also loves to tell me that I'm "just like my oldest sister" because she knows I don't like being compared to her. I've distanced myself from her because I'm just fed up and done with her abuse. I've accepted she will never change and no longer feel any feelings of guilt about my decision of distancing myself from her. It's taken me 4yrs to make this decision after learning about narcissism and although the grieving process was incredibly difficult, I'm happy to say I made it through it and have no regrets about it. Now as she tries to hoover me back I know it's one of her tactics and just ignore it. No longer the scapegoat.

She loves to include my dad in everything she says especially if it’s a way to seem like she has backup against you in order to control once again. Things have gotten real crazy throughout my life but more so recently when I’ve upheld my boundaries. She really hates that and any consequences that come along with it

    I always thought she was vain, like she’ll randomly send pictures to me of her photoshopped and it isn’t just one she’ll send about 5. And I always thought it was weird. She still does it
    When she buys me certain things like once she bought me a shirt and I was like “thanks”
    And she was like “no problems I like it on you the character on the shirt looks like me.”
    Like girl what 😂
    When I was a kid I was the scapegoat child, and I always got compared to my brother.
    I was lucky enough to have my other parent to stick up for me tho and see through her bs behavior.
    But I always knew something was off about my mom since I was a kid why I never felt love etc. These days it just seems worse especially when she brings up old trauma and twist everything her line “I tried my best to raise you guys with what I could”
    I usually stay silent.
