What Remains Behind: Question For You About Plane Anxiety
http://whatremainsbehindisme.blogspot.com/2011/05/question-for-you-about-plane-anxiety.html
It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Saturday, May 14, 2011. Question For You About Plane Anxiety. I am a horribly anxious flyer on planes and a comment once made to me by a pilot and therapist on a fear of flying board made me wonder if this fits any of you. I convince myself it is code from the pilot to the flight attendants of imminent danger. Seeing other planes also flying in the distance? Fast ...

What Remains Behind: When Former Nutjob Employers Give You Lemons......

It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Saturday, June 4, 2011. When Former Nutjob Employers Give You Lemons. Hmmm Isn't it interesting how once we become enlightened about NPD we have a radar for this. Narc-dar. And having a job that paid the bills (DH and I have equitable job salaries) is another example of what I have to do as part of my role to provide and do what is best as a parent and partner.

It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. But I don't feel the same anymore. Ever since she said horrible things to me and then about me and then never denied when I wrote to her about the lack of respect for me (and gave examples), and her meanness. My heart feels better when we don't talk. Things in the "material world? End of April I got this email:. I did not respond. Unfortunat...

It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Strong Memory of Being Used. I have a memory of something cruel that my mom did to me that I have thought of often. I may sound like a broken record, but as a mother of a 12 year old I cannot imagine my DH or me doing anything even close to this to one of our children. Always the protector of my mother……I just sat there....I donR...

What Remains Behind: This Summer I've Only Dealt with What Matters Most
http://whatremainsbehindisme.blogspot.com/2011/08/this-summer-ive-only-dealt-with-what.html
It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Friday, August 19, 2011. This Summer I've Only Dealt with What Matters Most. Since my last post after I was laid off from work I've been on an awesome road trip, another family trip to see many nice in-laws, visited my 90-yr-old GM for 5 days, doing things with the kids every day, and looking for the right job for me. Earlier in the summer when we returned from va...

It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Who Else Would Do This To Their Teenager? My NM hops out of the car DRESSED IN MY SCHOOL UNIFORM. And as if she is acting in a play she says loudly, but to no one in particular, "HI! I'm here for the dance! And she is sort of jumping up and down in a perky way, playing her role of a school girl. Friday, August 19, 2011. Since April she's ...

What Remains Behind: It's Been a Year Since My Last Post
http://whatremainsbehindisme.blogspot.com/2012/08/its-been-year-since-my-last-post.html
It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Tuesday, August 28, 2012. It's Been a Year Since My Last Post. And my avoidance of my NM only simply delayed painful interaction for me. But maybe it was necessary that I visited my NM a couple weeks ago. I feel bad that I took my kids there. DH keeps telling me not to feel bad- that they are teens and a tween now. Of course my NM no longer has any friends she has...

What Remains Behind: March 2011

It has taken 40 years to put a name to my mother's personality disorder.and how I somehow emerged as the family champion, and broke the chain. Monday, March 21, 2011. I was upset to see an email from her last week that my grandma had had a heart attack as a result of her elective surgery. She sent the email many days after the heart attack happened. (Note: the email gave that fact about GM and continued on with 2 sentences about what she has been up to regarding trying to sell her house). I continued and...
