What’s the worst gift a narcissist has given you?
All styles welcome, funny, deplorable etc

So my sister and are a decade apart. Our mom abandoned me and went on to get remarried and start a new family.
I met my mom when I was a teen and she was really mean to me, especially when drinking to drown her own trauma.
Our mom died 10 years ago and not after her husband got dementia and my sister was his caregiver.
Fast forward to now…I lost my daughter and my sister has been COLD.
Said it was a bad idea anyways and a bunch of other things that basically mean she thinks I am a POS.
She’s been through a lot and I can’t help but feel you can’t convince someone to love you let alone love you.
She thinks she is above me…maybe learned narc behaviour from our mom?
What would you do?

Sibling woes: am I in the wrong?
So my baby recently passed and I reached out to my sister thinking she may want to contribute to the burial as a gesture.
(I was abandoned by our mom and she was raised by her…mom a possible narcissistic. When mom passed away she left a large estate to my sister).
My sister said it was my choice to have a child and then named of a bunch of reasons why I don’t deserve help.
Is this normal or narc behaviour?
So I carry a syndrome that can be passed down to boys.
%25 chance the boy would have it and need surgery when they are born (potentially).
Can live a long and healthy life.
I'm currently trying to have a child and I lost them and the baby before this one in utero.
My sister said "it's meant to be" as she didn't think it a good idea for me to have kids anyways... considering.
I'm hurt and want to try again and also now know I will not have her support. (She does not carry the
For those who had help from their parents…
Whether financial or otherwise…
How many strings did the help come with? Or no expectations and just help?
I my “parents” narcs🙂

I grew up without my parents and I’m curious what’s the norm 🙂
So I had my second late term loss recently.
I asked my sister to let me know the next time she goes grocery shopping.
I told her I would pre order my groceries for her to just pick up when she was going anyways and drop off to me.
Well she didn't communicate and went shopping for me picking out items I don't eat and dropped them off when I was sleeping (they sat out in the heat).
I can't help but think it was weaponized incompetence as she said it was my choice to have a baby anyways... and I've been made to feel helping me is a burden.
Or was it her being helpful in her way and I am being ungrateful?
I will now need to sort out grocery donation as I don't want the food to go to waste.
I am a single mom by choice.
Recently lost my daughter late term and I was saying to my sister how I can't wait to try again.
My sister showed no empathy and said "is it even a good idea to be having kids? I don't understand why you would want to bring a baby into this world single".
She suggested "perhaps this is a sign".
My heart is still bleeding from the loss, let alone rejection when I'm hurting.
Would you cut your sister ?

Warning ! mention of loss.
My daughter passed away not that long ago and I am preparing to go back to work.
I was explaining to my friend how I am not looking forward to going back to work with kids after my loss.
Basically I should be grateful I lost my child as it's easier that way?
I removed her from all socials etc
And has the nerve to chime in asking if I'm OK
After she knowingly caused me
How would you respond?
This is my rainbow baby after an unimaginably sad loss.
I told my adopted mom and this was her reaction.
My first pregnancy I used a donor at the clinic, which she knows.
It just feels invasive, crass, (she hasn’t even said congrats yet).
(Also we are Italian so excuse the language translation)
It’s such a faint line
This is my rainbow baby, so the second time I’ve had to consider everything and decide to go forward LOL.
So the question is a little 😳
How do you get over uneven sibling treatment?
My mom was young when she had me and left me with my negligent father.
She went on to remarry and have another child.
I met my mom as a teen and it was strained (she had a lot of childhood trauma and was very mean when she drank...which was often).
When she passed away she left everything to her second child.
I felt like if I brought it up to her husband I would be cut out completely.
So the ultimatum of 1 could ask about any inheritance/her will...or be allowed to continue a relationship getting to know my sister.
It's just dawning on me now how I've been kept on the outside, not even trusted to have the code to open the door and put things I drop off.
I just lost my daughter (late in pregnancy) 🤰 so it’s really reopened this wound and I’m realizing I need to work through it, and also I could never treat my daughter like that.

Mom abandons first daughter and get married and has another 12 years later.
She then passes away and leaves nothing to her first daughter while second daughter she had inherits house, vacation house and everything else.
First daughter isn't even welcome to the cottage etc.
Is this normal?
Has anyone worked for a bully employer before?
Who you later realize is probably a narcissist?
I’m so glad I got out, I only realize it now :(
