The worst part is is when you're a Christian and you think that you're honoring your parents when they're just abusing you and you have been so programmed to be a doormat

1. Sees you as an extension of her. 2. She's critical 3. She has toxic reactions 4. She lacks empathy 5. She doesn't respect your boundaries 6. She wears a mask 7. She believes others are jealous of her 8. She's entitled and self important 9. She distorts reality 10. She has weird facial expressions

You completely described my "Mommy Dearest," however you left out triangulation, falsely slandering you behind your back, silent treatment, never apologizing, and money- stealing from and holding it over her children. Oh, and threatening no one will know when she dies. Always ready to die, but she outlives everyone!

Both my parents were narcissists. My mum still plays puppet master and i have learned a great deal about narcissism by being around her. These people drain your energy constantly.

My mother was very toxic. But she wasn't a true narcissist. Her inner true self was damaged but still intact. She made great strides in her last yeas of life. At 92 with health failing she woke up. She had something important to say to me one day. She looked at me and said "I never knew you". I didn't know who you are. Your so different than I thought. At her funeral it became very clear that her family had no idea who she was !

I finally disconnected from my narcissistic mother in 2021 after nearly six decades of emotional abuse and manipulation. I have never felt such freedom. She literally exhibits all ten of these narcissistic traits. Unfortunately, she has already groomed the “golden child” to one day replace her in the family matrix. I’m grateful to Jesus for setting me free indeed. Blessings to you and this community.

Oh my goodness. Every single one, including number 10. She didn't try to live through me, she tried to destroy me. You might also add to the list the sickly voices....baby voice, smarmy voice, contemptuous voice, sneering voice etc. When she died, all I felt was relief. Oh, and yes, she was a Super-Christian, on a level with God. Ironically, it was only my own faith in the real God that enabled me to survive and recover. I'm now 62 and still healing.

6/10 for my mom. But what is scary is that I see a few of these traits in myself - God has shown me some areas I need to work on!

9 out of 10. Just realizing this past year that my mom is a narcissist. And I am 49 years old. It all makes sense now. Never understood her over reactions to things, guilt trips galore. Everything about her, even how I celebrate MY birthday. No empathy even when my family had a house fire, she was mad because it inconvenienced her to have us live with her (although she lives alone in a big house). Whew. Finally it all makes sense.

My mother is all of these. And the facial expressions…thank you! I was so used to seeing them but still always thought they were over the top and not normal. Thank you for posting this. Going on month 6 of no contact. Having a covert narcissistic mother is so difficult to explain that you sometimes doubt your choice to go no contact. Then you see a video like this and remember the hell you once lived because of them. The reminder I needed to stay far away.

My mother was the most toxic negative influence in my life which destroyed my mindset and life in the end. Now that she has died my siblings want to do the same to me and trying to destroy me. I have walked away completely from my family gone NO CONTACT and my life is going great now.

Over the years, if I shared with my mother my hurts and disappointments, she would always say, “There are so many other people worse off than you.” What kind of mother responds to their hurting child that way?

My mother fits all the descriptions. Instead of dancing in front of everyone she’s making fun of people. 10 blew my mind because she has these faces that no one else sees but I see them and know what they mean. She is indeed a narcissist without question.

I wasn't raised by my mother but I had a maternal figure who raised me. She had huge narcissistic tendencies that made our house unlivable for me. I'm thankful to God that I'm no longer in that environment. I don't think I'd be alive otherwise. 🙌🏾

Can’t tell you how much validation I feel right now. Iam 63 my mothers 83 with dementia and other mental issues living in assited living. This list is my mother. She has done a number on me through the years and I always felt it was me I was bad I was this and that but as I got older and had been living on my own since 19 I got stronger . I could see there was something wrong with her. She still did damage but at least we didn’t live under the same roof anymore. I always felt bad that I loved her but didn’t like her. Iam a born again Christian and I struggle to totally forgive her because even the way she is now she is still that person does and says the same things and I can’t stand being around her. No matter how much me and my siblings do for her it’s never ever enough. She sucks the life out of us. I worry about her and want her to be safe and get out and try to enjoy life so we take her out 4 or 5 days a week taking turns there’s 4 of us . She goes to restraunts to live shows and plays shopping all family gatherings , dinner in our homes and yet whenever one of us picks her up to go somewhere she always plays the victim who never sees anyone or goes anywhere. The people who work at where she lives have told me they have never seen a family do so much for their parent. I wish they’d tell her that. Oh well she’s never going to change now so God Bless her and now knowing what I’ve been dealing with I feel better about myself and more empowered! Thankyou so much you have no idea how much I needed to know this . Many Blessings🙏🕊❤️

Such a right on list! ❤ 1) Thinks you are an extension of her 2) Critical of you 3) Toxic reactions 4) Lacks genuine empathy 5) Doesn’t respect your boundaries 6) Wears a mask 7) Believes others are jealous of her 8) Entitled and self-important 9) Distorts reality (gaslighting) 10) Weird facial expressions

My mom is 9 out of 10. I didn't break free until she passed and was finally able to live my own life.

When I was small kid my mom repeated regularly that mother is a sacred figure. And mother always knows best as she has lives experience.

I see ALL of these signs. It took me 40 years to figure out that I’m so explosive because I’m still being abused by her. No more!

Thank you for this! My mother is 10/10 and the thing that has made it really difficult growing up is my Dad enables her behavior. To give an example, at 38 years old I told my parents that my husband and I were getting divorced. She cried, made it about her and yelled "Why are you doing this to me?!" When I left, she blew up my phone with bible verses about how God hates divorce and then told me that God hates me and is mad at me. She demanded that I tell her where I was at and to come back so "we could talk about this". When I didn't respond to her immediately for the first time in her life, she threatened to call the police and file a missing persons report. She never even asked why I was getting divorced (abuse) and instead made it ALL about her. After going a while of not talking to my mother, my Dad called and said to me that I "needed to forgive her" despite her NEVER apologizing, because "it's the christian thing to do" and "she's your mother". My mom was a covert narcissist up until that massive blow up so I never realized it until it became apparent. I thank God for allowing that to happen, despite how hard it was to go through because he was exposing it all. And its also videos like this that remind me that I'm not crazy and I'm also not alone. Thank you and God bless!

Mom was a narcissist and ex wife narcissist I miss understood what love and forgiveness are. Thank you for your help God bless

Oh yeah, I remember my Narc mother telling me that I must respect her because she is my mother and I objected telling her that doesn't fly because she doesn't respect me...

I was all 10. Truly the love of God saved me through Jesus Christ. It’s been a long road but our Lord has guided me out of that terrible person I was. I’ve confessed my sinfulness to my grown children and asked for their forgiveness. They have. I pray for Jesus to heal them from the damage I’ve caused. My children and grandchildren are loving and kind. Praise and glory to our Father through Jesus Christ ❤

Thank God finally someone who acknowledges narc mothers. When I was younger I was totally confused by my mother's reactions in private and in public. In her head I was forever 15 years old, she'd always treat me like I was a kid. Ppl would praise me to her, telling her what a fantastic daughter she had, and bam she'd put me down in public, telling ppl what a mean, awful daughter I was. Ppl would get silent, look at me, and I felt so ashamed, thinking 'she just ruined my reputation to this or that person' (the smearing). But in retrospect I think ppl saw right through her, and were feeling sorry for me, probably thinking what an awful mom...poor young woman. And in those days, no one would accept the idea that your own mom was sabotaging your life. I don't know why but ppl always said 'oh, but she's your mom, you can't complain, you have to do what she says or wants'. In the bible there's a scripture that tell parents not to push their children over the edge, but I don't remember where and what exactly. Why isn't that scripture being put forward by pastors, preachers, priests, etc ?

My mother is 10/10 and more. Her favourite phrase for any achievement is, "If it hadn't been for me ..." She readily says she loves funerals more than weddings displaying her lack of empathy and even burst out laughing when a friend rang to say his dad had just dropped dead. The sneering and contempt with her face screwed up are too extreme to hide but are reserved for family while she fawns over strangers. No contact is the only way for happiness.

My mother (now 78) always had problems holding down a job...for obvious reasons. She still says, "I've just never been able to work with women....they're jealous of me." 🙄

Unfortunately, yes. I’ve suffered for a long time and given into anger with mine. I’m led to this video today… I’m 38.. and finally now having an independent… after receiving a text from her (which makes me anxious) I pray to God each time for the strength to be kind and set boundaries. It’s a very hard thing when you are family oriented, and loyal to a fault.. and this person has used your loyalty and love against you. I’m praying now because I feel it’s a test from God on how I will deal with it. I pray now.. because God is very much in my life and that truth teller in me is back and I try to avoid her because it could be yet another quarrel I don’t have time for. God knows how tired I am with this… yes, I’ve seen many different weird facial expressions over the years growing up.

I am so impressed by the honesty and how raw the truth in your information is.

All 10. 😅I can really laugh about it now but it took 20 years to heal from this toxic behavior. My inner child was severely damaged. God helped me all the way. I received step by step all the help I needed. Greetings from Holland.❤

Yep. My Mom as well. Her Mom ( Grandma ) was even worse. Their relationships were transactional and it was all about control. I could keep going…

I am ecstatic I found you! As a Christian I had a hard time with all the narcissistic abuse videos. They made sense up to a point but felt empty. I kept questioning my perception and thought I was ungrateful. My mom is so polite so overly nice in every situation. But she will never be available for me emotionally and be so fake. I’ve watched your videos all day. I feel reassured that God doesn’t want me to simply endure my mother.

She met all of the signs. Thank you. Now I am sure of the thorn.

O my, all signs are here. I might have dief before I realized what has been going on! I wish I had learnt about narcissism before

Very informative, excellent. I took your people pleaser quiz. I am an avoider. My mother was not a narcissist, but my son says that I am a narcissist. It was one of the most painful things that he has ever said to me. I cried for two days. I wish you would do a teaching for those mothers that have been accused of being a narcissist and aren't. I want a relationship with my son, because I love him. I have tried to change the things on the list that he accused me of, "not accepting no", which is the only answer I ever get, which did result in me asking again. I made a conscientious effort to say, "Ok," and let it go. However, I did think that one day he'd realize that's all he ever says to me is "no", but he hasn't. He has currently gone "No contact" with me, which breaks my heart. I pray for us, which is all I can do.

Oh My.Gosh...the facial expressions...have you been following us around? Spot on! Amd I gave birth to my mother...my daughter and mom are so much alike. Both extremely co dependant. Thank you for all your teachings in Christ...without Him we are all doomed. God Bless you!❤

SHE ABSOLUTELY IS SHE TRIED TO KILL ME WITH MY EX HUSBAND LITERALLY

Thank you for posting this it’s so true SHE CANNOT FAKE IT ANYMORE

Got my first period at age 11. Same day, "mom" called every grandparent and aunt & uncle, her older cousins, and MY friends mothers bragging what a great job SHE had done.....and gave me a rose.

My mother is very toxic. I am an only child. Many times over the years she has stopped talking to me, the longest time was for 7 years (very peaceful). She is verbally abusive, yells, swears and name calls. But it's never her fault - she says I always start it, like I asked her to please put her Xmas presents under the tree instead of on kitchen bench. In this instance she screamed at me that I am always so controlling with a lot of swear words. This was only last Christmas. She is 80. It never ends. She can pretend to be really nice for a few weeks, but then she starts again. She is currently only talking to her oldest grandchild, her favourite family member. I feel sorry for her as she has bad bouts of depression, and bad eyesight, kbut being around her is awful. She critises her friends, mimics their voices. She's mimiced me. And yes, she tries to say that I've remembered things wrong, or I've made up stuff. She even said she dislikes her "best friend" but needs her to drive her places. It's exhausting.

I have seen all 10 signs and if there were 15 signs then that would probably all checked off….. all these videos has taught so much on how to deal with a narcissist and how to set boundaries!

Cannot Question ANYTHING "You're always making stuff up..." It wasnt like ... that....

I'm so sad that my mother fits every one of these. I've been watching your videos (and a couple other ladies who talk about this) for a few months. I haven't wanted to believe it's true, but I had an issue with her yesterday, and today this video is in my email. 😢 Sigh...acceptance kinda sucks. I do appreciate all you do and how you've helped me to see the truth. Just gotta keep watching and maybe take a course to figure out how to proceed now.

It is so helpful to hear someone of faith discuss this. Thank you - I can't believe how accurate and true to my experience every second of this is.

10/10 and it is nice to see someone acknowledge the facial expression aspect!!! My mother always has a shameful contemptuous facial expression and i have actually called it out so many time, to which she immediately changes it and tells me I'm imagining it. She has looked down on me my entire life and I'm hypersensitive to "that facial expression" 🤮

Kris, I am so grateful that you are addressing and bringing light to this subject especially on a biblical basis. I'm 77 yrs old, my mother has been dead for 27 years, but her toxic influence in my life has left many long-term residual effects. She literally changed who I am and how I viewed God, myself and others. I went through counseling several years ago and it helped me to sort through a lot of the abuse by both of my parents. I let go of a lot of my anger, guilt and shame. I've done a great deal of healing and forgiving, especially forgiving myself. That being said, no one ever used the term narcissist to describe who my mother was. I would have to check " all if the above" on your list of 10. It is very helpful to see this more clearly. It helps me to understand my feelings and behaviors and to not feel so alone on my on-going healing journey. You are such a blessing in my life. ❤

Wow ok so my Mom is and unfortunately always has been every single one of those things my entire life. I wasn’t raised by her but I lived with her for several years here and there growing up and it was so unbearable. Even now, she’s still extremely hard to be around. I’m creating boundaries tho, excusing myself when her word cursing or screaming starts. These videos have helped tremendously in handling myself appropriately and the way God wants me to. Thank you Kris ❤ im not sure if you have children but if you do you, they are blessed! As am I! For years I would believe her word curses. Very greatful for your ministry Kris!

It’s like you know her 🤦🏽‍♀️🫠

My mother got lots support from me and never appreciated my help. It feels like she hated the fact that I provide home to roof of her head. When I was a child she treated me like servant. She absolutely loves her son more then me.

I woke up 3 years ago to the world around me starting with my parents 😂 i have been in my walk with Christ heavy these past 5 months boy oh boy your videos have been all i need 😂 i no longer need anything from these people i will continue to call out their wicked ways 😂 lord continues to work on me with me i will not let him go ❤

This video fits the script with my mother what she has done to me and it is absolutely disgusting. I am the process now of seeking counseling for past trauma therapy.

8/10, so I guess that's a yes. Always wondered why things were the way they were. Thanks for this!

I love your Christian perspective! 40 years ago my newly saved mom witnessed to me & I got saved. We've always had a slightly strained relationship. She even leaned over to ask if I heard the Pastor say Honor thy Mother (I was over 60! She in her 80s). But as she has aged, it is becoming clear, she has covert narcissist tendencies. Even my husband is seeing it in her. But he also points out Proverbs 23:22. Please advise on that verse!! Mother wants her way on everything. She has chronic gut pain & doctors can't help ( she also doesn't comply). She pouts (silent treatment) & was purposely reckless walking on ice because she was mad at me.

Thank you SO much for mentioning the facial expressions. This literally makes me emotionally flood, I’ve tried to explain it my whole life but it’s not like anybody else sees it. Thank you, thank you 🙏

My mother is more of an Enabler. She has been married to a verbally abusive, angry Narcissist for nearly 40 years and two of her daughters are either greedy Narcissists or Sociopaths. Her role is to please these abusers (trying to "love" them into Heaven) even if it means helping to completely destroy the good children. She appeared to be a true believer her whole adult life up until recently when the "Perfect Storm" of these three evil doers got involved in what was a great relationship with my mom that I had my whole life. Now these demons are out to destroy me and other family members due to greed and vengeance. For all her efforts to get these vipers "saved", they have pulled her down to hell with them....Yah left her a long time ago I have discovered.

Yes! The strange facial expressions.

OMG! That’s exactly my mom. Sadly, as she is old and having pain from osteoporosis, puts me in a bad spot. Her behavior is making me so sick to my whole body.

even physical boundaries like..seeing a door open, entering in the house! or knocking on the blinder ! and always comparing their prey to other siblings..."your sister, our angel and saint" and I am the black sheep

This is so true. Oh my. Have no words.

wow !!! Dear Kris very nice. God bless you.

I am experiencing that and much more with my mother that I have thought about hurting myself cause I'm not good enough to be part of this family. Specially after my traumatic brain injury two years ago.

You r a breathe of fresh air

This list is so true, I kept thinking about the "chosen narrative." My NM always has to have a sit down with everyone and get the story straight. This is where everybody sits down with her to hear what is the official version of the story or narrative of what happened.

I grew up under most of these 10 signs. Never thought of the facial tics one though…this one made me go run to the mirror and chat to myself, checking for my own tics 😬 The one where she thinks she’s better than others, is a dominant trait with her…in fact she will say she has never sinned against anyone and has, indeed, never apologized in her life because of this. She claims to all who will listen(got embarrassing when we had guests over), that she and Dad are so righteous that they will be ruling over other Christians in heaven someday. I feel sorry for those other Christians because she’s pretty tyrannical. 🤷‍♂️

Mine is a true, NPD that has a combo of Grandiose, Covert, Antagonistic, etc. She was physically, emotionally and mentally abusive up until i went permanent NC over 6 months ago when she achieved getting the golden child turned Narc to physically and verbally abuse me while i was pregnant and in front of my other child. Shes been trying her tactics to get me in her web again (which i used to fall for). She loves to and is very good at hiding behind her "faith/religion/spirituality". You have to remember that there is a demonic spirit attached to these types of people.

All 10 and more Kris

This is so 🎯 its like you've known my mother all her life. Triggered

Me and my husband’s mothers are Narcissist’s . Mine used me as the bread winner since 12 I was just a slave robot . Got away from her then had my mother n law on my back for 5 years making me the skapegoat . I felt like I had another Demon on my back in my own home for years, attacking me and my kids. That is some devilish mess I wouldn’t wish on anyone.!

I only heard about nr. 10 from one other person so far and I'm glad it's being addressed. I was witnessing it with my mother and was so confused, then disgusted about it. She does those rapidly fast but secret eye movements to check everything and everyone out, see what everyone is doing and how she should react to/mirror everything. No authentic person, everything is fake.

I will say I was kind of confused growing up. I’m 39 years old now, but I still feel like some of what my mother would say to me at times still kind of affected me and had an impact on how I deal with the world and people now And I understand that I have the power to change that and I can heal myself, but it’s hard trying to recover and undo everything that was done but anyway like I was saying I was confused by my mother I will say I’m not sure if she’s a narcissist, but maybe she was growing up I remember being deathly afraid of her I remember her calling me names when I made mistakes or did something wrong she will call me out of my name and curse me and punish me I felt like I could never get from under her ever since I was old enough to work. I just remember living with my mother, till I was about 28 and everywhere we moved. I would help her pay bills, which is understandable, but at the same time I couldn’t have friends over I didn’t feel like I could live and stretch out I felt caged in and boxed and whenever I tried to do something for myself, it kind of felt like I could never do it around her. I felt trapped a lot of times, and I remember even younger. We weren’t really allowed to have friends over our house. I remember times her grabbing me by my hair and pulling me to the ground because I snuck out of the house, but somehow always felt like the punishment never fit the Scenario I was quiet didn’t talk in school and all the faculty would always ask me if there was something going on in the home and then finally she passed away in 2010 from a self-inflicted problems. I miss her a lot, but I will say it was the most free I ever felt. But I felt like I could actually start living and in a way she was kind of like my protector and we did have some good times and I do miss her.

Wow I can't believe all my life I really thought I was the person doing or saying things wrong n the whole time it was my mom being toxic to me since I was born

Thank you Kriss for being brave enough to talk about the narcissistic mother. This narcissist, in my opinion is the most difficult to ID, because she usually starts off as sweet and nurturing, but over time she morphs into a self absorbed, controlling prima Donna who guilt trips you into serving her for the rest of your life. Very confusing.

Really interesting comment about the weird facial expressions. I totally notice that, and a weird, horrible look in their eyes, it's creepy, almost like they think they're so clever and loving hurting you, it's sick, sick , sick! Thanks for posting this.❤

Do narcissists get worse with age? It would seem so. I have a family member, mid sixties, that I have set boundaries with, but recently they have become much more combative during our phone calls. They give me ‘advice’ I do not ask for and ‘advice’ that they will admit they do not follow themselves, but I SHOULD do it anyway! They won’t accept my NO as an answer. My father did the same thing as he aged. It may not matter as I think I may be ghosted, if so, problem solved. It is important to point out that this is their choice. Better not to speak at all than to argue on the phone. In the future, I have decided that when the argument starts, I’ll just quietly hang up.

Unfortunately, my mom has all ten. If it is God’s hands in me, I would be done. I’m still struggling with a narcissist men in a romantic relationship. Pray I can get out soon.

Wow, you nailed this. Bravo, very informative, thank you!

I’m so glad you have this information. Nectar without this I cannot heal properly.

Wow. I wasnt sure til I watched this.

I never considered my mother narcissistic, just toxic, however, she exhibits each and every one of these signs and some more. I'm desirous of extrangement, but she is staying at my home currently. I don't know when this season is going to end, but I'm praying for it to end everyday. I've never been so sure.

Tha facial expressions is so so true 😂😂.

My god it’s so real

Wow.... 10/10. I still deal with trying to connect certain emotions to situations. Whenever I would be happy about something or had something amazing happen for me, my mother would make me sad or angry about what she was dealing with. If I was upset, her problem was always worse and needed attention. I was not allowed to ever fully have my own emotions. Therefore, now, I can't really figure them out or have normal reactions to situations, or the emotions come at a much later (and sometimes inconvenient) time.

My mother definitely exhibited all 10 traits. She was very cold. She didn’t fake empathy towards me, she just had none for me and never exhibited any for me. There are too many examples of her hatefulness to list, but when I was probably in my late 40s, she told me that she wouldn’t have kids if she had it to do over again. I was her oldest and told all my life that I was not planned and that I messed up their plans to move to California. She died 9 years ago at 81, and I’ve realized more and more since then that she never loved me. I was definitely the scapegoat. 66 now and still working on healing.

My mother is all of these and her ageing makes it even worse , than before.

Yes definitely having a toxic narcissistic mother

Once he told me your sorrows are my sorrows, your joys are my joys, a couple of months before he told me you have bored me for 3 days in a row crying, i had gone through the breakup of the longest relationship I have ever had, one time he got angry because one family member was improving in a health issue thanks in part to the support I was able to give her, instead of being happy about the improvement she got angry because she didn't do it the way she (mom) wanted, it was more important for her that the family member follow her instructions. my mother for my mother that the improvement in health, she got angry with me for making me happy for the improvement and telling her that she is her and I think differently, her anger is hers, I am happy for the improvement, I told her your bitterness is yours and it exploded horribly... well, what to expect from the person who locked me in a garage when I was crying, according to her, so as not to beat me to death because I was a crybaby, I was 3 years old... the cognitive dissonance that emotional dependence generates is strong, so That is why the gray stone is for oneself, to get used to denying them that emotional fuel, because they consciously trigger even the slightest negative reactions. An important detail is that the narcissist wants to be the center of attention and before I did not see him at family parties anymore. At once he exploded in anger without thinking about the children who were present, I know that I am not the best example and I have done quite a few bad things and there are things that have been difficult for me to improve in myself... but at least I try to respect childhoods strangers, the person that ruins the parties he never cared about you, one thing is a toxic/narcissistic trait another thing is the complete personality if it is only like that with you or if it is like that with everyone that if whoever exploits has sociopath traits if he is happy about the evil caused it is no longer an illness If you saw her smile at your misfortunes, it is because she is happy to see you suffer, blood of your blood.

I've learned that I never really knew my husband before he was my husband and what having a child with him has revealed about him as well.

I have facial tics… I’ve had them since I was 16… now I’m paranoid I’ve been the narcissist this whole time.

I think they want control at least as much as admiration.

The thing is and this is not excusing , but if you know no better you cannot do better it reminds me of monty python you had it easy sketch just the most hell upbringings each getting more insane, and we should confront accept balance, and take responsibility for ourselves and our actions because the damage if you don't can be soul destroying we must not falter we must be that light attract don't chase, respect yourself cherish yourself and love or you could lose it forever, and live in fear and hell I refuse id rather a day free in love than fifty in denial ❤️🙏😇

Very informative…

This is unfortunately so true. I found 1 to 6 and 9 and 10... And yes, I'm a people pleaser (big sigh) Thank you for your videos and ressources ! Stay blessed !

All of them…. But 3, 9, and 10 hit the hardest for me.

This is my mother to a T! 😮 Her facial expressions sold her out. The twisted mouth. The Squinting sideways glances and then the rages! It was time to run! I got to know the signs 😮 I no longer have contact with her. Too toxic and soul destroying. 😢

Fighting and praying on this hard

All of the above. So true and so hard

My whole relationship with my mother is explained in this video. I couldn't figure out her personality. Every single sign applies to her. And yess Iam a people pleaser!!! And I hate it, Ive slowly changed my pleaser tendencies but is hard for me to say no and stand for my desires sometimes. Narcissistic traits are so bad, I only feel disgusted every time she tries to talk to me. It's a no no

Only 8 of the 10 applied. Number 10 is the reason why, at age 73, I can no longer visit her in the nursing home. I sometimes feel bad about that choice, but I can NOT endure that look another time.

I once looked up at my mom to see the most disturbing look on her face looking at me. It lasted for but a second, but it was really awful.

Good grief! My mother checked them all but the last one. But she is a covert narcissist.
