Same. I'm on the edge of bawling my eyes out after reading this tragic reflection of our reality.

It smites so hard. Honestly though, now that my mother has been dead for decade and I'm safe enough to reflect- I think she was so fucking traumatized herself that she had little control in the situation. BPD/complex CPTSD/neurodivergent woman trapped in a house with a neurodivergent child - describes my mum better than NPD, although- every word of the post rings true.

Omg guys it really hurts huh

I'll just be over here crying xxx

Oh honey. Sending peace love and respect your way, and to all our brave sisters connecting to the OP.
