What does narcissistic parental abuse look like? 🤔

For the usual person this is difficult to imagine, let alone to experience, but this is something more people than you think experience nowadays. In today's post we are going to see what are the signs your parent is a narcissist, and you're going through abuse.

1. The narcissist parent compares you with other siblings. This makes you feel unworthy of their love and you're constantly working a lot to get their validation, their approval since you're a child. Still, it's never enough for the narcissist, as the Golden Child is always the best.

2. The narcissist parent constantly guilt trips you, telling you "how much they helped you" and how "grateful you should be for them giving you food on the table, a roof and a bed to sleep" - literally the BARE MINIMUM. The NPD parent also makes themselves be the eternal martyr that needs you (the scapegoat child) for helping them every. Single. Time.

3. When you finally moved out or you're detaching more and more from their influence, they KNOW. they feel it. So they will start a smear campaign in efforts to damage your reputation with your relatives, friends, partner, and even strangers. The narcissist parent gossips about you, twist your words or make something completely up.

4. Drama. Oohhh your narcissist parents do love the drama. And more if they are the creators of it! The excitement and the thirst in seeing you, the scapegoat have mental breakdowns in trying to keep your cool with them. They create conflict out if thin air to disagree with you about irrelevant things so they start tons of arguments. Stupid useless arguments.

5. Your narcissist parent(s) are masters on invalidating you, all your emotions, thoughts and feelings. "You're not sad", " stop being such a baby ", " you're always so sensitive ", " you're never satisfied " are perfect examples. No matter what you say, they always have something against you.

6. Your narcissist parent(s) believe you are as bad as they are themselves, so they call you names, insult you, or even describe you in ways they are actually describing yourselves (like saying you won't be successful...).

They project their bad behavior, character and traits onto you so they can deny it themselves and punish you for it.

If you relate to these actions, typical of a narcissistic parent and don't have any idea on how to heal and change your life from this, you're at the right place!
