And my mother has become increasingly emotionally abusive- not yelling and screaming, but playing sick little mind games. I’ve applied for housing in several other buildings over the past several months, but waiting lists for low-income and disabled housing are years long. Things came to a head last week. I had just gotten a part-time job as a video chat hostess working over the internet, and so while I’m stressed over my new job (I really like the job, but the apartment is too small for me to have a permanent workspace, so setting up and tearing down is a lot of work) she has been laying additional obligations on me, leaving housework undone at about the time I would need to be setting up my workspace, and nagging, nagging, nagging. You’d think she would be glad that I have something that helps with my sense of self-worth and contributes to the household income and cut me a little slack until I get settled into the job and can get a routine going. I had to go back on my anti-anxiety medication largely due to her abuse. The other day, I reached a breaking point, and contacted my DMH worker and told her if I didn’t get into new housing soon, I’m either going to commit suicide or become violent toward my mother.

Hi, I think my sister is narcissist since she was the golden child in my original family. I assume she is a narcissist from her behavior, like she wants everybody to listen to her and do whatever she says, she also make her kids believes that she is always right. That is what her daughter told me years ago that her mother is always right and she does everything her mother tells her. Now her daughter has her own family and 2 kids. My son fall in the trap of his ant because she needs somebody to take care of my old father.
