Becoming a Parent Myself Has Made Me Less Sympathetic to My Own Mom

You're Not Crazy: A Podcast for the Adult Children of Parents with Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorders

Today I share about my own childhood growing up with a narcissistic parent. I talk about why it's been such a struggle for me to really accept my mother's narcissism and how becoming a parent myself has made me much less sympathetic to my mother's poor parenting journey.
Also, thank you to all of our new Patreon members! I'm so excited to see the You're Not Crazy community grow :) Haven't joined yet? Sign up at patreon.com/yncpodcast
