As a survivor of childhood abuse, I finally discovered narcissism and how it affects every member of the family. If you’ve just discovered what narcissism entails, you have my sympathy, but relax, you’ll soon learn to negotiate all the pitfalls and move from surviving to thriving. Don’t let the Narcissist and Flying Monkeys get you down, because knowledge is power and it’s now your turn to rise!

It’s Wake-Up Wednesday Friends! What are we waking up to this morning? Here in the United States, we seem to be losing our compassion for the rest of the world. Our government has withdrawn from the human rights council while we are in the midst of a human rights crisis. This page is about narcissism and how it impacts our relationships. On a larger scale, a country who takes a narcissist approach where it has no concern for human rights and how we as a nation impact the rest of world will not end healthfully unless heroes and sheroes arise to combat evil. The cry to stop separating children from their mothers has people from all political sides and it is growing more angry every day. From Oprah to child mental health experts to every living First Lady, to the neighbor next door, many have spoken up. Most of us have shed tears and disgust at this abuse. The response to the cry of a human child is primal—it was put within us to care for the most fragile in our society. Such desperate cries can only be ignored by those who are either racist or narcissistic. Yet our leaders—many able to put a foot down to stop it, continue with business as usual. Their lack of concern will not only harm their own future, but the future of our country. Immigrants are NOT a drain on our system. Immigrants pay taxes and do jobs many Americans refuse. Immigrants bring new ideas and healing to our land. Immigrants are not stealing our jobs and land—they are bringing their own passions and hands with resources our country needs. But regardless of what good can come from adding to our country’s resources, we as a nation should never allow the separation of children from their parents on our watch. Maybe your friends are supporters of this new regime, but you might be able to make difference. Call your congressperson. Befriend an immigrant. Give to human rights groups working at the border. Wake up Friends! Show the rest of the world what we as non-narcissistic empaths can do. Just say no to narcissism. Take the road less traveled. #narcissism #immigration #children #humanrights #abuse #resistance #makeamericakindagain #riseupchurch #riseupmothers #riseupempaths #womensmarch

Writing memoir can be hard. I thought mine was finished a year ago, but the editing process is like a million rabbit trails and each one has to be examined and reigned in or gated off. I read once that writing a novel is easy because you can just make the plots up, but writing memoir is hard because your plot comes disguised with lots of extra memories so writing memoir is the process of trimming and editing to find the plots in your life. I wish I’d understood story theory when I started writing this memoir, it might’ve saved me lots of time, but I’m learning now and my memoir is a completely different book than the one I started to write. If you are thinking of writing a memoir, I recommend following K.M. Weiland. She has a plethora of articles and videos on writing stories. As you look for the plot in your memoir, it should follow a pattern called the universal story which is in every movie and book. You can find these listed in depth at her site: HelpingWritersBecomeAuthors.com Don’t settle for a scramble or rant—your story is important and it’s worth the extra time to create a cohesive story that you can share with satisfaction. Keep dreaming! Keep writing! Your messy story matters! #memoirmonday #memoir #storytelling #story #survivor #narcissisticabuse #childhoodmemories #writingmemoir #yourstorymatters #littleredsurvivor #keepwriting

If you are having a hard time with the holiday, remember it’s just another Sunday Friends! There are many people raised without fathers or who have lost their fathers or have narcissistic fathers. You are not alone. In some cases, an entire family has been built on a web of lies. The narc wants to shut you up, so he/she tries to destroy your reputation. Maya Angelou referred to these lies as little murders. It’s the murdering of a reputation. When siblings and relatives believe the narc’s lies and they, in turn talk to their children and their friends and before you know it, you can lose an entire family. Support groups are full of these stories. People joke about these narcs all using the same playbook. We joke, but it’s still sad because God intended for fathers to represent him to their children, to nurture and encourage and bless them. Many fathers are broken and unable to do this or choose not to care. The best thing we can do when narcissistic people are committed to misunderstanding us, is to walk away. We can’t make up for their disrespect. You are worth so much more than whatever the narcissist has said about you. Getting through a holiday weekend seems hard, but it’s not so hard when you realize your own worth. Not so hard when you realize you are not alone. Not so hard when you refuse to be disrespected. Not so hard when you choose to go where you are celebrated. Not so hard when you find your own dreams. You are worthy of love and belonging. #fathersday #orphans #narcissism #narcissisticabuse #survivor #narcissisticfather #youareworthy #godisagoodfather
