  1. Wholeheartedly agree with all that you so generously share. Such a timely gift!

  2. I belive you are foremost in this field for healing from narcissistic abuse! Grateful! :)

  3. Thank you. Very helpful to my situation.

  4. watch only fools and horses and keeping up appearance and sorry with Ronnie Corbett good way to see narcissistic characters in comedy look at captain manering in dads army an insecure narcissistic who is insecure

  5. I am scared to ask for help or support as I was ignored so much as a child I watched my brother be given private education a flat car whatever he needed I have had to fight myfragile egoto accept that it was nt my fault it was my parents for treating me as the inferior child

  6. d bailey I agree have a relative who talks about dying all time she expects to be worshipped as she is old and vulnerable sad thing is longer she lives more I see her as a person to pity as she just bullies the love I should feel for her none left

  7. I knew someone who is looking after there 89 year old who is clearly a Narcissist. Also the son is a narcissist it's such a sad situation I'm glad I'm no longer involved in such a dysfunctional relationship.

  8. Thanks, so much for this video. My mom who is 86 lives with me and my husband. She is Narcissist. I am the golden child of course. My sister is the scape goat, who was abused by my dad who was her step father. She did go to counseling and get professional help. Our family played the role completely. Your videos have helped me. I really need help in learning how to set my boundaries. I complain to my friends all the time and I know they are very tired of hearing my complaints. My husband is tired of hearing my complaints. He has told her time and time again to STOP HURTING ME, OR SHE HAS TO LEAVE. It will come down to that at some point. My family is behind my decision if thats what I decide. The sad thing is no one wants her. But I do need healing whether she leaves or not. I am at the point if she passes I will have no emotion and she is my mother.

  9. I need to apply wisdom you have bestowed upon me, asap. Thank you!

  10. You are providing a service to humanity. Thank you!

  11. very very good! thank you

  12. organizing around someone else's wounds! That really sums up what Ive been through in my last RS and I think also around my mother . Thank you for your wisdom.

  13. the sad part is some dont know what to do and really cant leave-like the underage teen and a covert narc parent-or a 75yr woman housewife-no friends or family and no government agency to help-to leave with these examples would probably be kid runs away and older woman goes homeless-so sad in some situations.there needs to be teaching for these types how how to deal and cope-love your video —

  14. Melanie thank you for your work. You mention in this video the narcisisist that takes money from family members etc but i think it would be very important to talk about other characteristics of elderly narcissists. My father does not take money and has nerver been financially irresponsible but his control towards me and my daughter who live with him (it was out of necessity…we are looking for our way out), is really messing me up. I have tried to deal with him, but I just find myself so unhappy all the time. It is being in a vibration that. I can feel is pulling me down. I left and felt the difference but then came back because I allowed myself to get sucked in and it has only been a week and I already started feeling the symptoms, the constant persecution with questions, the obsessive observer of all we do, he then goes and tells my siblings and criticices us….we are the scapegoats and because i tried to get away they all accused me of msitreatment towards him, basically said I was near abusing him, always angry…….so now I don't know what to to any more. I thought i was out and I fell back in. Now he feels he has the power and started controlling and being obnoxoius and basically impossible to live with.

  15. level up!!!! boom :)

  16. I am one person and this is my time: thanks sitting with me, sharing your insights.

  17. I love your videos, but I don't understand this one. Both of my parents are/were narcissists and very abusive, in every way. If I'd been born later, I would have had them both arrested. As it is, they lived very privileged lives. My father learned nothing from me not coming to his deathbed. And my mother continues to suck the life out of my siblings. They all blame me for not taking care of her. I send my sister links to your youtube videos, but that hasn't made a dent. I think the no contact rule is the only one I really understand. I'd like to move past that and understand what you're talking about here.

  18. I am not sure if your are also talking to heavily traumatized people.

  19. It would be more difficult with a maligne narcisst.
