Narcissistic Mother

I've just read several messages in this forum and it breaks my heart to see so many others suffer for so long with a NM. For me personally, I've reached a point where I don't even want to call her mother.
My brothers and I have tried for so many years to do the right thing only to find out she will take an event and twist it into something evil. Of course, she is always the victim.
I have FINALLY reach a point where I don't care if I ever see her or speak to her again. I am very thankful I don't live near her at all. I have not talked to her for a few weeks after I went to help her move, my first mistake was to go along. While there, she started coming up with stories of mean things I did 20 yrs. ago that were completely made up. So, for the first time after a lot was said, I just left. I'm thankful I have not had to live under the same roof with her for 45 yrs.!!!
The lesson I'm learning is why did it take so long to learn to not put myself in a Lion's cage. No one should feel quilty about not wanting to be eaten alive over and over again. Narcissistic people are mean, heartless and seem to have no empathy for any one. Their goal in life is to tear you apart, and then blame you. Tweet
