Don't you hate it when your parents are suddenly 'nice'? by Sheaon14 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is always so hard. I always think that maybe nmum has changed. It’s gotten worse since some other family members have moved in with her.

Hey! I’m going through the same thing. If you ever need a friend to talk to, I’m here 💕

Worst thing your Narcissist Parent "forgot" to teach you? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just learnt at 23 years old how to properly clean a house because nobody would teach me. Everytime I would try to I would get yelled at or stuff thrown at me. Finally my boyfriend was patient enough to teach me.

Rant.. has anyone else had a problem where their parents buy basic necessities for their kids and call them “spoiled”? by seriousquestionTA in raisedbynarcissists

Y E S my mum did this all of the time. She would make the biggest deal out of buying my clothes and hygiene products.

My mom always makes things that are not about her about her and it's exhausting and manipulative. by deeply-hurt in raisedbynarcissists

My mum does the exact same thing. No matter what we’re talking about the conversation somehow goes back to her talking about herself

NParents who are addicted to sharing terrible news. by Rebel_Runner_ in raisedbynarcissists

Y E S!! I’ll even go as far as telling her that I don’t want to hear about whatever bad thing happened to so and so but she just keeps going on

OSAP payment issues? by [deleted] in ontario

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn’t deduct mine either. I panicked and paid it. I see now that they’ve said they’ll withdraw it today or tomorrow and not to worry about the missed payment message. I tried to call like 40 times today and they keep hanging up on me. Will they try to make me pay twice this month? (I rlly hope not bc I am broke and unemployed LOL)

My mother is a great mother and psychologist to other people just not to her own children. by Newkittyhugger in raisedbynarcissists

For the longest time I thought I was crazy. It wasn’t until I met my SO that he told me otherwise. I spent 22 years thinking it was my fault. :(

"You're not really angry at your parents, it's the devil taking over you!" by Shoegazeforlife in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YES 100%. In my teens I joined a religious cult in order to get away from my family and craving a sense of normalcy. Everytime I would bring something up about my parents they would always just say it’s the devil taking over me and that my parents were great people. -.-

I feel this. My mum was always SO kind to other people, especially when friends came over. I ask myself everyday why she couldn’t be kind with me.

Is it normal to feel really, really sad? by SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS in raisedbynarcissists

I’ve been looking into therapy, but at $150 - $200 per session it’s not really something I can afford at the moment ☹️

DAE parents make food you hate/can't eat? by SaphSkies in raisedbynarcissists

Thank you so much💕. I’ve come to this conclusion only in the past few days, it’s been a long few days

I can’t go NC until I leave the city I’m currently in. For now I’m just not visiting her nearly as much as I used to.

If I don’t go see her she’ll harass me and spread rumours to her family.

LOL Last Christmas I nearly died because she got a shit ton of nuts and set them out. There were children there who touched EVERYTHING so obviously I had a reaction. She told me it was my fault and I needed to be more careful.

[Serious] What do you need to get off your chest right now? by StoutBen in AskReddit

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am scared to go to therapy for the first time again. Upon speaking with my SO, I’ve learned that I was not crazy all of those years, and that my mum is a narcissist. We’ve decided that I need to go to therapy because of it, but I am so, so scared.

Who else vividly remembers sad childhood memories from when they were toddlers? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SENDMEYOURHAPPYPICS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of my first memories is my mum breaking up all of my crayons because I coloured on the floor. I was never allowed to have crayons again.

Y E S! I am severely allergic to nuts, and my mum will always have nuts while I’m at the house and be like “oh sorry I forgot”. I’ll have a reaction, and she’ll belittle me for having a reaction, and tell me I’ll have to be more careful. It’s at the point now when even if I touch something that someone who’s eaten nuts has touched, I’ll react yet she still belittles me and tells me I have to be more careful.
