I like that you are writing about your past. I believe it can be healing. It breaks my heart to hear about such cruelty though. Thank you. You have amazing strength ♥️🙏🏼
My mother wasn’t a psychopath, but she was an extremely cold and detached mother when I was growing up. I can completely relate to your description of numb feelings towards your mother. To this day, when it comes to my mother, I feel nothing.
But Jesus 🙌 Jesus was my constant companion every day, even when I was extremely sad on the inside. He was a faithful friend and guide. He has never left me. I am so grateful.
I guess we don't feel anything because they just destroyed all feelings by rejecting us so hard. But I really feel that God has taken that place, and showed me that he is my true Father. For that I am truly grateful.
I have had the same experience. God is my true Father, and the Holy Spirit is the ever-nurturing, comforting, guiding presence I have always needed. I’m so thankful. 🙏 I love your page. I read every single article. Thank you for sharing your story.
When you are forced to stay in survival mode so long, it can delay emotional growth. It's really not over once you're away from the abusive person. That's just the beginning of the journey.
It has meant a lot to me, not just as a Bible verse but as lived experience. I am sure it is meaningful to others, and would be meaningful to more if they could believe and know it.
I'm so very very sorry. This is just heartbreaking and disgusting. This is not your fault. You were an innocent child. Thank you for sharing your life experience. It's very hard to be vulnerable and write about it. Kia kaha x
there are newer studies that indicate some malignant narcissists are also technically psychopaths. no one believes those who were raised by one. well, until now🙏✨
No child should be treated this way & I hope you find love & peace.
I completely agree Zara. I did find it in Jesus and my husband is rock solid.
I so strongly want to scoop 10 year old you up in my arms and let you know someone cares.

Parents can also cause a loss of feeling just by unwavering apathy and indifference.

I can totally relate being raised by an alcoholic, narcissistic mother.

So sad 😞
I understand!
Me too
