Hello all,

I am new to these forums, so please be gentle.

I am the only child of a Narcissistic mother, and was raised by her as a single parent. There were two other family members who also helped raise me, both were predatory - but hid it. Growing up my Mother was very quick tempered and fast to hit. She seemed to enjoy bullying me and threatening me. I was nervous and fearful of ...

One thing that is very obvious about my H is his inability to forgive anything....even after a person apologizes. At the time he may say he accepts the apology, but within days/weeks/months not only is he bringing the subject up again, he'll tell you that you didn't apologize (or really mean it). This is an endless cycle.

Before I begin, I would like to apologize for clogging this forum with another, " does my significant other have BPD?" I don't want to offend or insult those suffering from it. I don't want you to think I'm just taking one behavior and sticking a label on my girlfriend, because it's the easy thing thing to do. I just would like some advice/guidance from those who are ...

Hey, everybody! Today is my birthday!

It is the same day that Walt Disney was born in 1901.
It is the same day Prohibition was repealed in 1933.

Anybody want to guess what I got for my birthday present?

My birthday present was... drum roll, please!...

DIVORCE PAPERS!

I'm relatively new to the idea of my mother having NPD. We got into a very heated argument over a month ago, and I got so upset that I googled everything I could think of to try and get an answer to how I was feeling. The way that she was acting hurt me in a way that confused me, and I guess I just needed a reason for it. I typed in the words ...

Eighteen months ago I ended a near two year relationship with a woman (30) who I recently realized was a narcissistic psychopath. I am only writing here to ask if there is anything I can do to have a sense of acceptance of the time we spent together because I am left with a complete wasted feeling.

I have a new girlfriend who I do not feel appropriate talking with about this because it seems ...

He with Aspergers, was so affectionate and loving. He is very high functioning. Intelligent, witty, socializes really well with his group of friends. He is slightly awkward socially but I find that adorable. He can go on about a topic about birds, insects for science for ever and ever and I loved to listen. When we first dated, he was so sweet and responsive in person. He was very affectionate, which I also loved. When ...

My wife of 4 yrs just separated with me the day before Thanksgiving. She took our daughter and my stepdaughter to live with her mom. For the last 5 yrs we have been together and it has been hard at times. I first thought something was wrong when we were just talking and then she went into a rage and threw ...
