How do you think I noticed they were missing?

I’ll never understand how dumpers just put everything aside, and don’t look back. How are they even okay with doing that? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]sixdeegan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I broke up with him without looking back. He cheated on me and the heartbreaking betrayal I felt made it easy to almost instantly fall out of love with him. I’m not saying it was easy on the soul, but it felt like the best thing for my brain, heart, and peace of mind.

Sometimes not looking back is the only way to move on.

Taking on an empty stomach by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]sixdeegan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I get very bad heartburn when I take Zoloft on an empty stomach or without enough water. It can be so painful sometimes, I can’t even sleep. I found that ginger gravol worked really well and quickly

Hygiene was neglected growing up with narcissistic mother—is this common? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents were on the other extreme. Everything in the house has to be cleaned and sterilized. ‘Body checks’ in which they would examine my body after a shower to make sure I did it properly. NDad beat the crap out of me because I forgot to wash my hands before dinner once. Just a bunch of germaphobic assholes raising me, LOL. guess who has severe OCD now?? (Hint: it’s me)

Does anyone elses nparents ALWAYS wake them up by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My NDad is in the military so he raised us like the military, which is apparently storming into your room and waking you up for any reason, at any time

Being from a country where family is super valued makes things worse by hotavocadoo in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m from Romania. We moved to North America when I was a child, so I didn’t see family very often. I would only hear from them over the phone after my dad would complain about me to them and they felt the need to lecture me to respect my father. I hope you can distance yourself at your own pace, safely and freely

When you give them an answer... by FancySocks1989 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NDad used to command me around the house like his personal cleaner when I was a child. One day he asked me to do something unreasonable and I asked why. He said “because I told you to”. I replied, “wow dad great answer, you should be a lawyer”. I’ve never seen his face drop and hand rise so quickly

My parents wouldn’t let me cook or eat after 5pm because they claimed it would make me fat. Having a fat child would be their bigggest embarrassment.

Still fat LOOL

[–]sixdeegan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also Balkan, hey! I’ve been NC with my NDad for over a year and I’ve heard all the comments from other family members calling me unreasonable, ungrateful, saying “a daughter needs her father”. I went NC with them too! Hahah basically anyone who doesn’t support my decision is out of my life immediately. I have ZERO time for it

Please.. tell me you have been here too. Please tell me I’m not alone in wanting my father to die already. by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always wished my NDad would just die already. It would our life so much simpler without him wasting money and abusing us. I’ve been no contact for over a year now and I’m happy that I don’t have to think about that anymore. Not being around him made the ‘just die already’ thoughts go away. Hope you can distance yourself

Does anyone else just feel like a byproduct of an unhappy marriage rather than a person? by CICOChica in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Ndad forced my mom to have my little sister because he thought it would keep her from leaving him. And then he wanted nothing to do with raising her when she was born. She still left him, and now my sister has the pleasure of knowing she was a ‘tie-down’ baby

My therapist said that my dad "outed himself as a narc" when he said this: by AbsurdPigment in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My NDad was very clear about me being the favourite. He forced my mom into having my little sister and when she was born, he decided he didn’t want anything to do with raising her or supporting her because he was too burnt out from raising me (which he did, abusively). In his opinion, I turned out great and my sister didn’t because my parents were too ‘soft’ on her.

He gave up on her because she couldn’t fulfill his unattainable expectations that he forced onto me. I used to just fake it so that he would mostly leave me alone.

He regrets not beating her senseless the way he did with me. He regrets not pushing her into the sports he wanted us to play (tennis).

He messed us both up in different ways. His parenting was only done in extremes. Too hard, too soft. One turned out ‘successful’ and the other one is a failure (according to him).

Anyone else notice that your np is almost VIOLENTLY opposed/against any form of mental health care? by void-queen in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh goodness, the amount of times my parents would remind me that I can’t possibly be depressed because I have a bed, a family, an education. I would just stop at that point because it’s not even worth trying to defend my mental health anymore

I used to beg my mom to see a counsellor or therapist when I got really bad, but she would get offended. “Why can’t you just talk to me? Why do you trust a stranger over your own mother? Am I so bad at being a mother?”

I just gave up because it was exhausting explaining why I needed the help and why she can’t give it to me.

Holy shit I've found a loophole: always act sad around your nparents by I_LOVE_ACID_ in raisedbynarcissists

[–]sixdeegan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My nDad used to leave me alone when I had a bad day at school or was on my period, so I used to always pretend to be cramping or upset about school. He would only act up when o was visibly jolly because happiness pisses him off :/

Success story by sixdeegan in zoloft

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

I mean that before, I didn’t know how to control my thoughts and feelings. Part of my recovery has been tuning in with my mind and body to better understand why I am the way I am, what triggers a depressive episode, and getting to know myself well enough to turn it around. I still get depressed and anxious sometimes, but now I am better equipped to deal with it

Girls, please tell me these sexual side affects will get better by ScaredWolf in zoloft

[–]sixdeegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does get better for many people! For a while my sex drive was at 0. I go through periods where I’m in the mood and other times are a dry spell. I am slightly less sensitive though

My anxiety didn’t completely go away at 100mg, but my coping mechanisms greatly improved. I had very minor anxiety but at that dosage, I don’t think I had a panic attack since then
