Narcissistic mother
Tired of my mother mistreating me. I yearn for acceptance and validation from her but she just won’t… Any tips.

I hope you don't live with your mother. You must distance yourself but I did want to add that narcissist's will never give you validation so please understand that and adjust to that. Your job is to take care of yourself and your family and love yourself enough not to allow her to control you. Narcissists know nothing about love. Love to them is nothing but control, so you cannot expect more. That's just what they do. That doesn't mean she doesn't love you but she doesn't understand what true love means and how to treat people right because her mind won't allow her. Her ego has taken over control.
