Discovering at 57 my mom is narcissistic
Thank you Claire, Adriana Bucci… i am in shock… through therapy i heard my mom must have borderline syndrome… but only today at 57, listening to this podcast - I recognize e v e r y t h i n g about it: my mother is the narcissistic queen of all these stories… omg… i am struggling daily in myself… for lack of a reason to exist… from the outside i am functioning, except for the many autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue… depression, the emotional black hole … now anger is arising… i guess it was repressed… my mom is so manipulative that i have a blind spot for it, i first tend to want to save her from the world… she is the victim… she is the wise one, i should be grateful for all the love bombing (shocked at this word, never heard it before but fully recognize it, and then she would turn that around and mis-use it against me… so i’d feel guilty for being ungrateful). I guess USA is much ahead of Holland, also in my 20’s there was no googling… i broke away only because i literally suffocated during one of her shouting and screaming episodes in the car at me… I return many a time. But even with distance she has a hold on me, became her voice is internalized. In shock, but hopefully this discovery is going to bring me something… thank you all, be safe, xx chanti. @colorintact

As a narcissistic educator myself, I really appreciate Claire’s approach to her podcast. The question she asks her guests are very well thought out, and she very easily is able to continue with the flow of conversation. The interviews with self-aware narcissists are particularly interesting and...Read full review »
