[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, people don't just become narcissistic. She's either been like this all her life (which I think you would know), or something has lowered her threshold for "honesty." She may have the beginnings of dementia or have had a small stroke. I'm not sure it will get better if you find out the cause, but it may make it easier on you mentally to know why. Either way—it's hard, OP. I'm sorry. It's OK to limit exposure to what you can handle. [/quote] I think she's always seen herself as a good person and used to be able to put in the energy to do so which would counter some of her narcissistic qualities. She has less of a filter and less energy so the work to be kind has drifted away amd what is remaining are the judgments that were always there but now with a stroke of meanness to them. It's kind of a stripping away of effort and also poise in speech.[/quote]
