Anyone work thru enough of their narcissist child abuse and actually start to feel sorry for narcissists? They will never feel any true emotions. They will forever be working overtime to garnish narcissistic supply. They will never grow up. Never mature. Never be ok with being alone with themselves. Then they have to fear being forgotten the minute they die. Everything about them is a lie to cover all their shame.
>>81622836 >mfw vent to my mom about all the times she abused me and played favourites >she heads into her room, disappears for an hour >comes knocking into my room, and starts lecturing me about why i'm wrong you just can't win with these people
>>81622859 >you just can't win with these people You really can't. That would make them have to feel their own shame >>81622867 You might be confused about what empathy is
>>81622887 You said yourself that your mom has issues. Just give it a rest. My mom has so many issues and gave me so many issues but instead of being a jerk to her we just vibe. We did have a crying come to Jesus talk when I was drunk a few years ago but it didn't do any good. She is mentally stuck at like 13. It is better to just love my mom for who she is at least you didn't draw me in a bathtub and tried
>>81622944 I have learned to pick my battles with her because my mental health is more important than collapsing because my mom went schizo and hung up on me in a BPD episode
>>81622780 >I don't like people who gaslight, strawman, ad hominem, or otherwise argue in bad faith so... Honestly overwhelmingly most of the people doing this are just completely retarded, not narcissistic. Hanlon's razor and all that.

>>81623002 I think they're aware of it internally, they just need to project a "successful" mindset or whatever where they're "handling" everything for the sake of their ego
>>81622974 >learned to pick my battles honestly same, that vent you read in the other thread happened exactly today the last time me and my mom fought was about 3 years ago
