[quote=Anonymous]I am 52 and it was only last year that I became aware that my mother is a narcissist and my father is her enabler. As others have said, once I became aware of this everything, from early childhood to now, made sense. I have read many, many accounts from a wide range of people in a similar situation and have accepted that nothing is going to change. Rather than wasting any more time wishing I had a normal, close and loving relationship with them, I have taken the decision not to contact them and to to treat them as if they were dead. That may seem harsh but it is easier than thinking of them as alive and simply not having any feelings for me.

Finding ourselves in this situation is almost too incredulous to imagine and those who do not have narcissistic parents and enablers will simply not be able to understand. Unfortunately, this is very real and as the children of such situations (whatever our age) it is important we take back control of our lives and not let our situation impact negatively on our emotions and way we live our lives.

Luckily I have a loving husband and son, good friends and other members of the family I love and who love me.

Good luck to all in this situation and find your own way to make your life happy and fulfilled; it will never come from your narcissistic parent and their enabler.
