What if its yiyr daughter.? I can't walk away
@Shybutwilling2bfriends I knew someone would ask me this and had a loved one like this. I do have a daughter who is a narcissist. It depends on how far they go. I never thought I would say that either, but I had to, or she would have killed me, literally. I tried all my life to help her, but she is so abusive to me and threatens me, that I had to walk away for my own safety. I lost my daughter to this disease. I still pray for her and love her, and I pray someday she'll be whole. I'm sorry your daughter suffers from the same. I know how hard that is and heartbreaking. She abandoned me completely and if she could get by with it, she would hurt me anyway she could. In fact, the family has to stay away from her because she's that dangerous.

I have walked away years ago, with only a few phone calls on special occasions... but this narcissist is my aging mother and I'm the only child. So how does one manage that?
@StarLily I feel for you. Do you live with her? You must set boundaries for yourself and not allow her to cross them. You can do that in a gentle and caring way, by not arguing with her, but being firm at the same time, and making sure she respects your boundaries. If not, you don't give in. We teach people how to treat us. She'll never learn until boundaries are kept and no matter what she says and whether she likes them or not, she will learn to show you respect. If she refuses to give you the respect you deserve, don't reward her. Silence is golden. She'll get the hint real quick.
