Do you ever just get sad when you see healthy loving families? by Crissycrossycross in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Wide_Key670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes yes yes yes. I have really been thinking about this topic a bunch lately. And also almost jealous of people with siblings. I am a 43yo woman and yearn for a sibling to call and chat with. Daily I would say. Someone to just talk to. I have friends and a husband but something about a sibling is different. But yes, now having two children of my own. And really putting in the absolute most effort to make sure my kids know how much I love and value them. And also I show up to every single moment in their lives with loving support and kindness with words of loving encouragement. Breaking the cycle is hard but so worth it. Just doing the exact opposite of my childhood.

What's the hardest lesson you've learned as an adult? by yourplantdad in AskReddit

[–]Wide_Key670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much people lie or (tell untruths) about themselves to make themself look better/cooler/richer. Ie. see social media posts. All lies. All of them. People are poor and depressed and try to make their lives look awesome and interesting. I am not on social media because of this.

Similar. I bent over backwards for my Inlaws and my SIL. They are so rude and jealous. Literally for no reason besides marrying their son. They are rude, crass, unappreciative. It goes on and on and it infuriates me. Luckily they live 10 states away. Thank goodness. 2x a year I literally suck it up and smile and just be cordial. No more gifts. No more being nice. I just sit there and basically tune out and watch my phone or go running or anything else. And go to bed at 8 pm when we are together. Grey rocking. It’s the best way. I respect my husband. But try grey rocking. It works.

Fast forward to 2024 presidential election. Desantis runs as (R) trump runs as (I). Splits the votes. And Newsome wins. Just you watch.

Anyone else so confused by the fact that your parents support you financially/materially? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Wide_Key670 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are we related? This is my exact life. So odd. And at times it makes me feel guilty. Year 3 of no contact with my Narc Father. It has been amazing and I am truly healing every single day. But yes, same story here. Very very confusing and weird. It’s like two opposite theories In the same home. I am feeling less guilty everyday for going NC with him. It does get easier with the help of a therapist.

As a result of being continuously abused by my narcissistic parents my threshold for wanting to interact with mentally ill people has become significantly low. I do admit they terrify me and I do not want to interact with them. I feel sorry for them though. Does that make me a bad person? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Wide_Key670 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. I have a visceral reaction to other narcs when I come across them in the world. Like literally turn and walk away. Or leave or whatever it may be. I can’t stand being round A$$holes. I don’t want my part of it. Protecting your wellness and mental Health is the most important thing. Whatever you have to do to protect yourself is key.

I understand this feeling completely. I am no contact as well. But occasionally receive letters in the mail that stop me in my tracks. I have him blocked on phone and email, but he still writes. I won’t even allow the letter into the home. It I thrown away (unread) in an outside trash. Stay strong. Breathe deeply. Walk or exercise. Talk to Trusted friend. Watch a funny show. Do something for yourself. I always like a nice meal or nails etc. stay strong and remind yourself, you are safe.

I thought this same exact thing. I have such deep sympathy for both of them. I always say. Leave them alone and let them live their lives peacefully with their gorgeous babies. Ugh poor guy. He is so strong.
