Hi, Ann,
Yes, you're right... N'ness felt familiar.
It's a blessing that you're able to see the bigger picture of NPD and put all of these things into perspective.
I'm still getting accustomed to the reality that I actually
was blaming my parents for the condition of the rest of my life.
Now that I've said it, I believe that it's possible to move on.
Hi again, Gjazz,
There's freedom in saying the future is mine to design my way. And while I know how frustrating and miserable it is when you feel you can't break free of past abuse, for me happiness comes with taking the reins away from people who would hurt me.
Exactly!
Thank you so much.
This has helped alot.
Sincerely,
Carolyn
