[quote=Anonymous]My mom is a narcissist, so our entire family dynamics were structured around making sure that she didn't get upset. Our wants and needs were unimportant - ignored or ridiculed or gaslighted. She fees entitles to say mean, critical things to any of us, without consequence, and to violate any boundaries that we set. So I grew up thinking that the criticism, ignoring and belittling were normal behaviors, to be expected and managed. The good news is that I don't stay with my poor choices in men, and that I've cut off my mom so I can try to stop the cycle. The bad news is that it takes a lot of time and work to fix me.[/quote]
