Hello everyone
Well, I think I have finally found it! After years of searching the net for information and support for children of narcissistic parents, I finally found these boards. And it's scary! Nearly all of your comments could have been taken from my journals (or my head :? ) Maybe I'm not crazy, after all ...
There are tons of questions I'm just dying to ask, but I won't bombard you yet. I think I'll just hang around and read and see how things work, if that's OK. BTW - my user name is the collective noun for a group of cats, in case you're wondering!

Welcome Clowder!
It seems you're not crazy, after all! I bet you knew that anyway if you already know that you're an acon? It's a tough job but this board makes it a lot easier.
Ask your questions now if you wish. There are no rules here, no-one 'in charge' as such (apart from Dr G) so it's your board to use as you like. Go ahead! This is a relatively safe place, say what you want to. :) P

This board is an awesome resource and I'm happy you are here. Feel free to ask away. There are lots of people here with great experiences to share.
Take care of yourself and welcome!

Welcome Clowder!
It's like a ray of sunshine, isn't it? I nearly fell down when I discovered this board. Voicelessness describes my condition perfectly. We're looking forward to hearing your voice when you're ready. Thanks for stopping by to say Hi.
Best, Seeker

Welcome Clowder !
You certainly are not crazy. Please feel free to post here, I am a newbie here and might post things that might not be exactly profound.. but who cares ? No point hiding away from the fear of making mistakes. We are all learning !

Thanks Portia, Michelle and everyone for the warm welcome.
I'm really looking forward to getting to learn more about your experiences, and sharing my own. A little ray of sunshine it indeed seems to be.
First question - what's an acon? ( a child of narcissist???) :?

adult children of narcissists I think. : ) Good question.

Welcome, Clowder. :) I like your name. The cats I live with would probably like it too. :wink:
When I found this board, it felt like I had found a well of water after being thirsty for so long. I think I have said this before but it feels so TRUE. And, a really nice thing about the well is that it is big and there is no N at the front gates telling us whether or not we have a "right" to drink here.
