A mother's love is like no other… Unfortunately, sometimes a mother can also be highly damaging for her child - you.
Have you noticed that your mother seems hard to calm down, like she holds anger and grudges for ages?
How many times have you been annoyed by her patronizing comments… this month?
Were you recently forced to thank her, even though she didn't do anything special… again?
If you noticed those traits in her, you may be in quite a danger - you're dealing with a narcissistic mother. At first glance, it doesn't sound too bad, sure. But think about that - her toxic, draining behaviors have probably been affecting you since childhood. You can only imagine the amount of trauma you carry…
Let's say your friendships or relationships fail - and too often for it to be a coincidence or pure bad luck. Maybe people call you out for being bossy, demanding and domineering? Or the opposite - they think you're indecisive, gutless? If so, you may have been affected by your own mother's narcissism without realizing it.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is not all that common - an estimated 1% of the population suffers from it, with two out of three of those people being men. But that's exactly the danger here - narcissism in women can often get overlooked. And since the mother is usually the one spending more time with her child… You do the maths.
Make sure you can break the cycle.
It's not just your mother's problem - now that you're an adult, it's yours.
Her issues may have gotten transferred to you, they shaped you and you have to deal with the consequences. From snarky comments that ruin your self-esteem, to gaslighting and constant fear of repeating her mistakes with your own children, you live in a constant state of emotional trauma.
Thankfully, there are not only ways in which you can recognize the symptoms in her and yourself - but there's also a set of guidelines for you to crush the shackles that stop you from being happy and… yourself.
