[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So is Brenda wrong?  She claims she has had a revelation in discovering Joan has been a toxic abusive narcissist and is 90 percent cutting Joan off from her family, even as they live under the same roof. Examples she gives as proof:
1) Joan never apologizes
2) Joan creates medical crises and goes to the ER when she wants attention
3) Joan asks Brenda's kids for favors (rides, carrying things, etc)
4) Joan says Brenda is just too sensitive
5) Joan sometimes doesn't buy presents for her kids when they stop spending time with her
6) Joan sometimes moves Brenda's stuff without asking (ignores boundaries)
7) Joan thinks she's smarter than everyone else
8) Nobody likes Joan and avoids her
9) Joan says she doesn't want to live anymore after being ostracized by her own family
10) Joan is always negative and angry at the world
11) Joan uses her health ailments to keep Brenda hooked and in her life

Meanwhile, Brenda talks badly about Joan to friends and family, saying she is mentally ill, and tells her friends and family to avoid talking to her.  Now Joan is disabled, alone, depressed, and isolated and says she doesn't know what she did wrong to deserve this treatment.  The isolating part seems a little bit like narcissistic behavior to me.

Brenda sounds like a psycho. Joan should watch her back.[/quote]
