It finally made sense to me that my mother was a narcissist about 8 years ago after an incident that happened. Since then I feel I have changed as a person , I get angry easily and don’t take care of myself, I am overweight , depressed and emotionally eat and procrastinate a lot. Before realising she was a narc , I was happy and looked after myself , I ate well and exercised. I live 4 hrs away from her and used to visit a few times a year for a few days at a time. Since the past year Iv gone low contact, sending the odd message and visited her once for a couple of days. I did recently go through a grieving period of realising I’m not going to have a relationship with my mother as I would like. I did try therapy for a bit but felt like I wasn’t getting anywhere with it. I suppose I just want to know , did your life change when you finally clicked your mother was a narc?
