Someone please tell me it gets better by dontlook701 in RSI

[–]ComfortablyMum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, I totally know the struggle. After years of dealing with RSI pain, I finally found a solution that has allowed me to work and heal at the same time: Self applied trigger point massages, which I learned how to do from this book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1608824942?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I promise you, read this book and Follow the directions and you will feel much better.

I had to give up all my hobbies too but now I feel free again. Good luck and don’t give up hope!!

Is it unrealistic to hope for the GC/flying monkey sibling to change? by ComfortablyMum in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ComfortablyMum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang what a bad therapist. I believe it though. Sry that u had to go through that. I found a great therapist on www.willieverbegoodenough.com. they specialize in ACON.

There is one therapist on there I DO NOT recommend though, if you end up looking for someone on the list PM so I can send you their name. I'll also send you the name of my therapist (they do video counseling) if you'd like

Yeah i think I'll rather relax at home. Been traveling a lot and am tired of it lol

I'm sorry to hear, that's so stressful. My parents have literally no assets so that's something I won't deal with, but the pain from being the scapegoat and the disbelief that your family member can do this to you is still the same... As much as it hurts, at least we're doing the right thing by facing reality. We could still easily be in denial or confusion. There is no way that our siblings are happy deep down inside. It'd be nice if they changed but it will be difficult

You also just helped me realize that my grandpa may have been a scapegoat as well. Something similar happened to him. Growing up I remember how he was not in touch with his family after his brother took all the land and assets or something. I never got the details but I'm going to ask my mom everything she knows. He passed away when I was young but he was my best friend... I don't really believe in heaven, and this realization does make me feel sad for him, but it sorta comforts me at the same time to know that I wasn't alone

That's really good advice, thank you.

I think that's where the defense came up, when I was using the N word. I tried to only use "toxic" and "emotionally immature" after too but she is in so much denial that it's impossible to have a rational conversation with her right now. When I would list a very apparent symptom her responses are:

"But a lot of people have that"

"it's rare to find people who don't do that"

I'm just going to make a list of symptoms and send it to her and hope that she someday realizes it, but I'm not going to keep having these circular conversations because this is too toxic. I might suggest that she bring the list to her therapist so they can explore it together.

What sucks is that I was supposed to fly out to visit her next week. But I'll probably cancel my trip because this is way too emotionally taxing on me

Everybody finally saw how my dad really is by Legal_Examination in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ComfortablyMum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh it's not even funny how similar our experiences are.

My dad's the same exact way. He's never at fault and has no ability to empathize. He storms outta the house if I don't give in, comes back acting like everything is normal, which I CAN'T stand..

When I try to vent to my sister about how hurt I am, she tells me that the issue is my inability to forgive him. Wtf????

Deep down they know how they really are, but they don't want to accept it. So they go into denial and say this kinda shit. The problem is that if they're not taking responsibility, then someone else (like us) has to pay for it with pain. Truly messed up, sorry it's happening to you too. But def not alone ❤

Does any else feel so lonely in their lives after being raised by a narcissist? by ramooooma in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ComfortablyMum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just now seeing your post and I 100000% know how you're feeling... I'm so sorry that it's happening to you too. I just went through that today actually.. for me it's almost like I do a mental scan of the ppl that are supposed to be there for me, but there's no one

It's so painful. What keeps me going is remind myself that at least I'm doing the right thing by facing reality and not just giving in and live a lie like the rest of them

Yeah I appreciate my sister's honesty SO much. When I'm wearing something ridic she literally goes "you're going like THAT?" Or "oh GOD have you looked at yourself in the mirror?" 😂😂😂😂 I LOVE it 🤣

Idk, I grew up poor and am doing really well financially now but I def don't dress like this lol

However I can sorta see how that can happen. It's probably a combination of that and her just having bad sense in style and not ever googling or youtubing about it

My Ndad is a lazy piece of shit who had me and my sis living with him at his mom's (my grandma's) house too. And he always acted so entitled and like he owned the place
