My mother is a narcissist, we have always had a very difficult relationship and after her severely affecting my mental health, we are very low contact just for the sake of the grandkids really. This was my choice and am very happy with this decision, I feel so much happier and calmer since.
i have recently cut my hair into a new style and I have received a few comments from people saying that now I look like her and it’s really really bothering me - every time I look in the mirror now she is all I can see.
The people that have said it are people who are fully aware of our relationship and have laughed afterwards knowing what that means to me. I just can’t get over it, I dread the thought of looking like her which I know is probably unreasonable but it’s very much how I feel at the moment.
i don’t know what I can do to get over this, I loved my new haircut to start with but now I find myself googling things I can do to my face to change the way I look ☹️
I know I probably abu but has anyone else has similar and have gotten over it?
