Here's the deal, I've just set down a path that could change my life. I've discovered my mother to be a narcissist and I detest how that has shaped my life to this point. In my recovery I have lost several friends and family members; and they all seem to rattle off the same line. "You've changed." While that is true I have changed in positive ways, I stand up for myself now and nobody seems to like that. So now I'm selfish and rude because I won't let my friends walk all over me. I'm scared because I feel entirely alone, and I don't know how things are going to get any better. I get home from work and I'm immediately saddened because I have nobody to talk to and nothing of substance in my life. I'm hoping that starting my second job and going to therapy are fair distractions.
