I am not surprised your father got depressed. Yes anyone in close proximity to a NM becomes just like them or becomes depressed, anxious or turns to alcohol and drugs. I saw this myself in my own family. Sadly many choose to become like the narcs and shut down all feelings like my sister. I am glad your father did not become a narc but sadly the cowards enable them and hurt us too. I am glad you could forgive him, and sorry for your loss. I wonder what kind of father I could have had without my NM around to increase the wickedness. He was in thrall to her, and I wonder if he was someone else when young. That was cold of your brother.

Everyone who lives in close proximity to a MN either has mental problems, anxiety, depression, substance abuse (a normal reaction to narc abuse) or they become a rabid follower of the Narc under their complete control. Even though my Dad was an enabler to the MN witch who bore me, he never became a narc, he was just a coward trying to preserve the peace and also to save his own hide at my expense. I did forgive him though and the Lord knows it. My heart was broken into a million pieces when my flying monkey brother texted my husand and said "Daddy is dead if anybody up there cares". There was little girl still trapped inside my heart who hoped to some day have a relationship with her Daddy. I don't know if I can ever forgive my <br />bad seed egg donor and God hasn't yet made it clear to me that it is necessary. The Bible only requires us to forgive humans.FreeSpirit3927https://www.blogger.com/profile/12029405428876367709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-3781600916785376952015-06-02T20:18:07.390-07:002015-06-02T20:18:07.390-07:00Truth tellers are not very well loved in this soci...Truth tellers are not very well loved in this society. I think that is a role often scapegoats end up in. I am glad that therapist told you that your parents were the problem. She probably helped your esteem greatly at that time. Where you ever allowed to go back? I bet you weren't but I am sure she was a good influence. the book People of the Lie saved me probably, I read it knowing I was reading about my parents though I wouldn't understand narcissism for many many years.<br /><br />http://fivehundredpoundpeeps.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-nature-of-evil-and-npd-families.html<br /><br />Praise God for that wise therapist.<br /><br />Five Hundred Pound Peephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05862707335431442713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-64937278556520172722015-06-02T17:19:05.521-07:002015-06-02T17:19:05.521-07:00My MN mother and enabling dad sent me to a psychol...My MN mother and enabling dad sent me to a psychologist when I was 16 because of my "unstable mental health." They dropped me off in her office and left and went out to eat or something. The psychologist asked me a lot of questions but didn't say much. After about an hour my parents came back to hear about what a "horrible mentally unstable" daughter I must be. Instead, (and unbeknownst to me until later) the therapist asked me to step outside while she told my parents that I was not the one with the problem: THEY WERE. The only reason I found out what the therapist said was because my MN mother, in one of her famous fits of rage, accused me of "sweet talking" the therapist with my big green eyes and getting her to believe my side of the story. I don't even remember what I said to lady except that I told her the truth as I knew it from a 16 year old girl's perspective, and I do remember thinking that this therapist wouldn't believe me anyway and thinking she would automatically side with my parents. I was wrong about her and I will never forget her. She was WAY ahead of her time! People didn't know about narcs back then except for a few like M. Scott Peck (People of the Lie). I've always been a truth teller. They really hate that.FreeSpirit3927https://www.blogger.com/profile/12029405428876367709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-53351532630449279462015-06-01T15:10:04.209-07:002015-06-01T15:10:04.209-07:00Too many narcs can abuse via wills.

So horrible are these creatures to do this to us after not even raising us properly. I see my mothers eyes clearly these days, and then I see how horribly they wanted to murder us. I see in my own words how I use the words horrible and horrendous so much in my speech that a counsellor had to take me aside from the group session, as I was just plain torture to be around. With these words he described me as having PTSD. I have to work hard at taking these words out of my speech when I go to church even. It is a habit of mine to use such deplorable language. <br /><br />But when I read about your family Q, I get where the words come from.

But in my case we kept our farm despite my mothers actions and not because of them. While we were gutting our fiances to pay for her lawyers she repaid us by not buying us clothes, dental, or health care. And she still disinherited my sister and my self for reasons only she can tell you about. And the end result was a shift of assets straight from our pockets into my ex wives, the most shiftless person I know after my mother. And I have known some shiftless people. This comment was inspired by the old bat about half way through with the black eyes and cruel sneer.

Stirs up the anxiety a bit, eh? Peep, we've discussed the big picture Ns before, but the topics are as endless as the "players" and the systems they infect, pollute, manipulate, destroy. Important to keep an eye on "them" so we can protect ourselves somewhat, the best we're able, from the next moves we know they'll make. (This is tough though; they have a pretty good squeeze on us already, but I'd rather know than be oblivious, I guess.) Thanks again for posting this, Peep. Smakintosh's message came through loud and clear. -- LoraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
