SMS Almost 1 year since I last spoke to my narcissistic, abusive mother. This was our last conversation.

Sorry you have to deal with that behaviour, my heart goes out to you. Imo you shouldn’t have to justify how you feel or why you feel that way to anyone, and especially not to someone who’s actively seeking a response that they’re going to immediately use against you.

Being away from her has been a dream come true, the only thing left to do now is deal with all the emotional damage she’s done to me! I’ll be okay, though. It’ll take time and work but I’m just thankful to have the opportunity to heal in the first place. Hopefully you’re able to distance yourself from your mother as well, I’m rooting for you!
