That’s the reason I didn’t have kids. Didn’t want to pass that on. Didn’t want to bring another human being into this world of unfathomable anguish

[GodIsGoodAlways-eq]

To honor the work those who’ve survived this environment have done, I believe it’s important to also say there are 2 directions until healing. We must remember the pattern breakers too. Just shouting out for all those who have healed. There is hope. Keep going. ❤

Codependent here! I've been in recovery for years. The generational curse stops with ME!! I can confidently say my children and their future children will live a long life of nothing but peace, happiness and love ❤
Recovery is possible!!

God bless you all xx

My father was a narc and my mother codependent. I was mainly rebellious, the black sheep, but when it came to relationship I attracted the narcs and became my mother 😢. My brother however, ended up a narcissist.

[marzenakubitza]

I was raised in such a family. I struggled with depression, anxiety and the whole spectrum of everything and still had narcissistic tendencies. everything is correct. but I also went through the therapy process and you can break out of these patterns, but it's hard work. It took me 8 years. but you can recover from anything😊🙏

[advictoriams]

I realised this after I left my mum's and years of being the black sheep.

I don't want to be an extension of my family. I don't want my family to be an extension of me either.

But I also noticed that for those of us that left/were kicked out at a young age and became the black sheep of the family mostly ended up with fearful avoidant attachment.

[OneWhoKnowz]

I was them but I’ve healed and forgiven myself and continue to heal

[dixie]

I beat the system, and became everything my narc mother could not be and broke the mold with my son, and it took treatment for myself, and early family treatment for how I raised my son to adulthood and he is true to his authentic self and loves me.❤ I played the game with my narc by setting boundries, never engaging in her passive aggressive behavior and never sharing anything of myself except the basics, the downside is I attract nars and as soon as I catch on( pretty quick) I end the relationship, which has turned out that I remain single, but it is a happy balanced life.

The parent will gaslight the child, his or her whole life. Never take responsibility for their actions and expect you to accept their crazy narcissistic personality disorder makes you think that they love you, but they will gaslight you like you are the worst child that could ever exist.

[Reach]

Once they see you as the enemy they will never change their mind. You can try all your life to please them and it will never be enough.

I did therapy for 20 yrs my mom was the queen of narcissisim

[karenlynch]

My mother was a Narc. My dad her beaten puppy. Mom spoiled the crap 💩 out of my brothers but I was blamed for EVERYTHING

[ranc]

BBC Documentary from 2002 called "Century of Self" helped me to place trauma in bigger picture and understand better our emotions and predators who parasite on our trauma.

[KatArt]

All I can say is, THANK GOD I became the black sheep, people pleaser, codependent, because I still could get therapy to get well, which I have done. My sister (the golden child) became the covert narcissist. And we all know, they never recover from NPD.

[thomasotnes]

💯 Tried to avoid that but was too ignorant. Took a failed marriage with a horrible end to force me to awake and realize I have to become stronger.

[ladyofthewoods]

And I married into a family like mine I was only one like my dad my four sisters narcs . My kids and grands didn’t stand a chance

[veronicasanchez]

So true!!! I was the oldest who was the actual mother to my 5 siblings when my parents were living destructive lifestyle yet I was made out to be the black sheep aka truth teller for years and even alone after my mom has accepted Christ she struggles w playing favorites and keeping us divided I pray for her because I know she tries hard to break free of that bondage of being narcissistic I’m so blessed to have finally found Christ because
It’s Taken years to heal but Jesus made it possible ❤🙏beloved father God so grateful!

[christinav]

My mother was a narcissist my dad always worked and I hardly saw him. I escaped from a young child into dreaming, art work, exercise and still do as a mature adult. So all my siblings turned into narcissists and I ended up an empath but married a narcissist with a narc family. Thank God the marriage needed but both my children are narcissist like their father.

[nicholecornes]

I'm out of the narcissist way to watch with popcorn

[shaz]

Yep, here 👍
Still alive, not knowing which one. Or what way to go to
