Living with a narcissist in lockdown...

Hellloooo,
Firstly, I was just wondering if anybody had any general tips with coping with being stuck with a narcissist (in my case my mother. For reference I'm 21) due to the pandemic??

Also, as an additional question, would you say that it is okay for her to open my post and ask to see my bank statements? As an adult I feel like this is a major breach of privacy, but maybe im over reacting??

And before the hate comments come flooding in about moving out because im an adult, im a university student who is paying for accommodation I legally cannot go to at the moment, so that is not an option or a helpful comment.

Thank you!!

Well she sounds nosey! I sometimes have old mail delivered to my mums and she always puts it into a draw an doesn't quiz it. Even when I ask her to open it see what it is she refuses ??? That's annoying lol

Iv no idea on how to deal with it just try keep yourself to yourself until you can leave again and tell her to mind her own

Hope your okay x

I would move everything to on-line only!!!

I thought there were exceptional circumstances in which you could go back? Can you make your student accommodation your permanent address somehow?

You could argue that you are being subject to her narcissistic abuse, which means you can leave.

Thanks

Have your post delivered to a post office box...

It is never ok for her or anyone to open your post, no matter what it is. I would raise the fucking roof if someone did that to me.
