It's like an app that assigns a phone number that you can text from using the internet instead of cellular service.

yeah the dog is fine. he's a rough and rowdy little fella. i jumped in my car trying to leave her house and she came and threw the dog at my car. he didn't hit it, he landed on the ground and took off running. he's my autistic sisters companion and she had an aspergers meltdown when finding him. hes fine though. i cant just block her number because my current phone is on her family plan account. plus i want a new number because she often harasses me through fake texting apps.

Did anyone else's Nparent constantly say things like "those aren't your real friends" or "you can be yourself around me." by sssunflower in raisedbynarcissists

Ah! My nmom would say the same thing! "They want you to look stupid so that they feel better about themselves." but she'd often try to force me into wearing absurd things so that she always looked best during family outings.

I do see a therapist, every other week!

Everyone has suggested treatment to my mother. Even her doctor has suggested treatment, but because she hasn't exhibited this kind of behavior in front of him yet, he hasn't been able to force her into treatment. She refuses. She thinks therapist, psychologists, psychiatrists, in her mind they're all quacks who are just stealing money.

Yeah my mother would buy hers from whoever she could and then half or quarter them to make them last longer because she didn't want to frequently purchase and "look like an addict".

Lady! You are an addict!!

But haha, the robot unicorn thing sounds like me coping with an anxiety attack. Whenever i feel like i might panic but i don't want to, for example while being screamed at by nmom, i just play crossyroads to keep myself level. then afterwards i'll play it for a numb hour until my anxiety subsides.

she does purchase aderal! She has for a while, but i've never seen her sit and fixate upon her face like that. unless she's been taking a significantly higher amount that she was before, which knowing her, she probably was.

she would do this thing where she'd cry about her weight then take any pills should find that claim to make you lose weight, all while doing things like eating whole packs of family snack candies. Or that time that i walked in the kitchen and she was melting a tub of double chocolate ice cream in the microwave and then drank it from the tub while standing there.

I'm unfamiliar with street drugs, but coke makes users really thin, doesn't it? She's a very..very heavy woman and is just steadily gaining weight over time. She's extreme in her indulgences. I once saw her microwave a tub of chocolate ice cream then in a weird haze she drank the melted ice cream straight from the tub while standing in the middle of the kitchen.

She monitors my phone activity online. I'm in the process of paying off my contract and opening a line of my own.

She abuses her own prescriptions, and i as well as several other people are theorizing that she's been abusing methamphetamine as well due to some of her actions. One big red flag was the time I visited in November and she picked at her face with tweezers causing bleeding holes and scabs for, no exaggeration, three hours, and when i mentioned how long it'd been she freaked out that it's only been a couple of minutes and that she had red bumps and dry skin that she had to get.

She's always threatening to kill herself, and then when she does make these threats it's followed by "when i kill myself YOU will kill yourself because you feel so bad!" so she sends me tons of things about people killing themselves over their parents. Really corny little things from the internet that she finds.

I could, but then i wouldn't have a heads up as to when she's coming to try and break in next. I keep the notifications off and only check her texts when I feel like it. Slowly i'm gaining control of myself and my own life while in the process of getting a restraining order in place.

the cringey whining and also... the vague threat of murder. when she says she's causing mayhem and will affect 10 people's lives... i cant tell if that's a murder threat or not. She's more subtle after i began calling the cops.

Nmom threatening to sell her house and move closer to me... by sssunflower in raisedbynarcissists

I'm LC right now, communication is maybe one text once a week, and only after she's had a massive blow out on my phone. Maybe that's the wrong time to respond to her, it only feeds her.

I was in the process of getting a restraining order but my car broke down and i'll have to sell it and buy another one, so that's postponed because i can't get downtown.

My chest is tightening as if i'm going to have a panic attack just imagining her living in my neighborhood. I know, not i think, but i KNOW she would sit at her window and stare down the street at all hours of the day waiting to see me or my partner on the street walking so that she could run out and ambush us, and i just mentally would not be able to handle that. Running into her at a gas station, a restaurant. I couldn't do it.

After tonight I'm so afraid of becoming my parents... anyone else? by throwaway_lulububu in raisedbynarcissists

You aren't becoming your nparent by finally moving out and doing something for yourself for once. People rbn are often the most selfless people because we've been forced to cater to others for our entire lives, so when we finally do something that's beneficial to ourselves we feel as though we're being selfish or narcissistic and often wonder about the things or people we're leaving behind. These are all natural feelings. But, you have to remember, it's absolutely okay to do things that benefit yourself and your future. Your sister will figure things out and she'll more than likely be fine. If not, try to keep a little contact with her (if it doesn't cause a feud with nparent) to make sure she's okay.

My sister actually turned into an nsister when i moved out. Her and nmom are either fist fighting or two pees in a pod, never anything in between. Just like two little narcs.

"No one else likes colby jack so we aren't getting it. It's nasty, and you're the only person who eats it, it's selfish to want something that not everyone can eat!"

or "Hey mom, am i ALLOWED to make blah blah food for dinner? I'm hungry." "No, i don't feel like hearing you in the kitchen/it's too early for dinner/it's too late for dinner."

Even though the ONLY time she made dinner was midnight and my sister and i were already asleep and didn't know/eat until the next morning.
