When you can't be yourself or are afraid to just be you.

​

I put two videos here today, as they help explain one another. There is a big difference in being a Narcissist and having been raised by a Narcissist. What is frightening is that if we are not working at becoming Christ-like, we can become like the people who raised us. If our parents were victims or a long term survivor of abuse, neglect and abandonment, chances are we will begin to see symptoms of being an over-achiever, perfectionist, sad, depressed, riddled with anxiety and many other symptoms of, "not going to be good enough." I personally experience trust issues and fear of not allowing myself to be "me-who I am" and not who everyone else needs me to be, or who I became to make others happy or able to function. 
Only learning about oneself, prayer, honesty and crying out to God can help anyone regardless of what they are dealing with.

ACTION STEP: If you have then time, watch this video below and if you think you were raised by a Narcissist, learn how you can not repeat the pattern with those in your family and loved ones. Survivors of Narcissist Parents are not going to recognize their behaviors, and as the first video shared can be like two people. But God! God can heal everyone and every memory. God has helped me see my life as a blessing. I don't have to spread the gospel of enabling to be radically accepted. I am and you are accepted by Christ and Father God. The Holy Spirit is daily help. Call upon the Lord!
