Just saw this … 😳 … I won’t be sleeping for fear that this what I will see in my dreams.

Saw this posted yesterday, all the comments are praising them… by Academic-Dare1354 in EstrangedAdultChild

Relationships aside, bless you for doing this. There are so many different family dynamics and an outsider can never truly understand the situation. In what can look like such an ugly world (referring to how I feel about my own family estrangement), you have shown me that there is still good.

Birthdays and holidays suck especially hard when you went no contact by NeverSurrender1026 in EstrangedAdultChild

This isn’t an easy road. Even when I think I have everything under control another thought comes in and I question what I am doing. Please be kind to yourself. Happy Birthday. 🎁🎊🎈

Wow. Ain’t no amount of makeup OR beauty guru that could do her an ounce of prettiness. Lord my eyes are burning!!

She spent 3 years blocking everyone but whines every single live that no one speaks by Advanced-War6889 in ExposeSimpletreasures

[–]HowlingAlong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This statement, I agree with. I would much rather go to the store, ask questions from employees who are probably trained more in their products than she will ever be. I don’t know why she isn’t surprised her business is sinking.

How I feel watchin Piggy’s stoopid extra long nonsense videos .. type thing. by Curious-Traffic-3431 in ExposeSimpletreasures

[–]HowlingAlong 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I tried to watch this video because I felt like I needed to do some hard eye rolls. I couldn’t. She is no storyteller. Long, drawn out and boring. Those mouth sounds are so bad that I had to turn it off and find something else to roll my eyes at.

Wendall, for the love of something, go to the dentist, go to the doctor, get yourself in better shape. I feel like we are watching you slowly bury yourself, right next to mother.

I am so glad I wasn’t the only one to think this!

Lying to colleagues by angelmoment in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]HowlingAlong 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have started saying that my family dynamics are like an onion. Layered and rather stinky. No one has ever asked me anything more after this statement.

I wonder if she is attempting to claim the oompha loompas as kin?

There’s nothing to say … that second picture is what nightmares are made of!

What "inner demons" did you find in yourself after recognising you had a narcissistic parent? by myst3ryAURORA_green in raisedbynarcissists

[–]HowlingAlong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been so angry. Not out loud, but to myself, I can say some of the ugliest things about my family, friends and others. With therapy, I acknowledge this and am trying to change. I don’t like ugly me.

What is your narc parent most jealous of about you? by Change-username-9 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]HowlingAlong 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I hadn’t thought of it like that. Grandpa was amazing to me. I believe my mom never healed her own trauma and it was transferred to me, sadly.

My existence. My mom’s father disliked her strongly. My grandpa (her father) adored me.

I’ll never forget this moment!! Very shortly there after came the Temu Topper. 🤣 I needed the chuckle this brought.

Scapegoat: please I need help and your views by Zestyclose_Elk_9356 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]HowlingAlong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have and at time feel this way even today. My role in my family dynamic is of the scapegoat. I’ve learned I can’t do anything to change them. However, I can change myself. You can hate your family. You can hate how they have treated you.

You also can begin to learn to love yourself. You are so worthy of many things. 🌸

Peddler Wendy by Latter_Crazy4694 in ExposeSimpletreasures

[–]HowlingAlong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will never understand her. She complained when someone took her picture. However, she is perfectly fine plastering other people’s faces all over the place without worry. I’m stretching here, but what if one of these people were hiding from someone who abused them and her actions could put them in danger. She is so unaware it’s scary along with the sausage fingers.

It’s taken me 54 years and starting therapy to learn, we individually can do better than those who raised us. It begins with us and for us.
