well, momma was crazy so that doesn't surprise me! I got a three year old and can't wait for teeth to fall out.

do kids really do this? (Pull out their loose teeth) my mom always blamed my crooked tooth on my not being willing to pull out a loose tooth.

I keep tons of notes in my address book. Who knows?

a narc will never help themselves, they don't think they are to blame for their situation. If there's a problem, they think it's your problem (or someone else's). That's one of the reasons they basically hate everyone.

I used to really want an officially diagnosis of my parental units, it was important for me to understand why they did the things they did. I talked about this in length with my therapist and he said this - at the root of all personality disorders is a dysfunctional view of self and most often some serious self esteem…

I read somewhere that narcissists need attention like a drug. It was called "narcissistic supply" and basically argued that for a narcissist, any attention at all fed the supply so they don't care if you are mad or happy with them, as long as you are giving them attention. That's why they get so frantic at any threat…

my dad used my dying grandmother to try and force reconciliation. Narcissists have nowhere they won't go!

I would have done the same thing

to go no contact with my parents, I had to walk away from my entire extended family. It's been five years and I'm slowly starting to reconnect people and learning that it was the right decision. No contact doesn't have to be forever. It can really help to go nc with enablers for periods of time for them to see and…

you really know your boobs! Respect!

she needs to go to a decent bra store and get fitted. Oprah had a show about it once! She's gotta protect those assets.

The tabs along the right?

What ever happened to Moe? God that article makes me feel old.

maybe this in and of itself doesn't sound that gross. But it was winter, the metro was crowded with handsy pervs and filthy (like this kind of filthy). I almost barfed.

I agree. My son is obsessed with pooping right now so this did nothing to gross me out. We watch a lot of fart videos, what can I say? I think puss-filled sores or things stuck under skin is grosser, if that helps in the pursuit of disgusting. I'm sure there's some really cute, totally disgusting kid videos.

mark, I think you can do better. That said, I really hope this woman has a great birth story. Based on this, I'd love to read how she manages that kind of pain.

I love that group but can only take so much. It's very trigger heavy. I also like bpd family, it is open to people who've been impacted by narcs.

oh god, I can't even.

it is liberating! I definitely get sad sometimes and wish I had support or parental figures invested in my well being for non-selfish reasons. It's also hard when my son tries to adopt grandmothers at the grocery store but that said, I'm learning to enjoy letting some things be about me (first time I've ever let…

others can't see it but screw those people!
