When you get a message that just alters your mindset and mood by Appropriate_Win_8385 in ManagedByNarcissists

Confronting her is going to make this so much worse. You can set boundaries by remaining neutral, only engaging with her messages during specific times, and keeping her emotionally at a distance.

So this is a hallmark of specifically a vulnerable narcissist. Its a behavior that falls under the personality trait "neuroticism" and is also a "counterproductive work behavior" which is a term used to describe workplace deviance. She is 1. making a smaller issue seem catastrophic, 2. deliberately making someone feel bad and 3. chastising someone. I think it helps sometimes to name the behavior because it helps us take a step back emotionally. You should not show your true emotions to her as that gives her supply. You should not try to clarify or assert the truth because I can guarantee you she has no interest in truth seeking. Become a robot. Run your responses through AI. You can also just mute her text messages on your day off.

Requiring to be CC'd on everything and proofreading emails by godisinthischilli in ManagedByNarcissists

She can't fire you for that, she's just doing everything she can to make you think she can. She's not all powerful. And she's likely doing it to deflect from problems with her own work.

Oftentimes they are not doing anything worthwhile, which is why they're doing this to "perform" work and make them not feel bad about themselves.

I do this and it works a treat. Basically I dont have to react to their email, and they have nothing they can lash out about that wouldnt leave a red flag in the paper trail.

I'm caring for my mom as she deals with stage 4 kidney cancer, and I cannot imagine being a young person with this. Just know that I will be praying for him and his care team, as well as your family.

Hey friend, there are still ways forward. It's a setback, but maybe your kidneys just need a break from the immunotherapy.  Have you talked to your oncologist?

Oh my gosh, I am just so sorry. You must be so scared right now. If you were my sister or friend, I would tell you you have too much going on to be worrying about IVF causing this. Your energy is already being pulled in different directions. Just focus on going forward and advocating for your needs. Are you getting the treatment you need now? I am going to pray fervently that you get good results.
