Myself

Hi there, some days ago I started a conversation at the PreOp forum about sleevers with Narcissistic mothers. There are quite a few of us. So I decided to try and open these group so we can share our expericences with our "moms".My name is Maria. I live in Venezuela and I will have my surgery this next Wed, June 12.AS long as I remember my mother was kind of weird, always attacking me and my sister, not physically but verbally. Some years ago, after a lot of years in therapy, reading a lot, I discovered my mother has a NPD.It is the most devastating thing you can have as a kid, as a teenager... as a person.I decided not to telling her I will have the sleeve done because when I was telling to her about the possibilite, she started to discourage me anyway she can. She has told me all of my life that I was obese. (Which I believed until I started looking for pictures from when I was 16 years old and I was not skinny but perfectly normal to thin. When I made diets and loss weight, she used to tell me I was anorexic.. No way to win with her.I am pretty much over her things today as the became a widow last January and her huge anxiety has led her to a cuasi dementia senile state. Not quite because she can always hurt my sister and I with her words. But she is in a very bad mental and physical state.Well friends. Let´s share our experiences regarding this kind of parentes and how this relate with our weight problemas, eating habits and share our things so we can support each other during this huge change in our lives. We sleevers!!!Hugs for all of you, Maria
