Hello all,
Very thankful to have found this group. I’m an adult daughter with a family: a husband and young child. I’ve recently come to a realization of the enmeshment and covert incest relationship with my mother. Once I became pregnant with my child a few years ago, the dynamics came to the fore and I was searching to understand what was wrong with the relationship with my mom. I have a history of being drawn to narcissists and didn’t realize that I was molded for this type of relationship because my mother is a covert narcissist.
I recently finished reading the audio book, “Mothers Who Can’t Love” which highlighted many characteristics that my mother has including the narcissist mother, the mother that needs mothering and the overly enmeshed mother.
I’m seeking to detangle this web this year with God’s help and am seeking guidance and support as I continue to build understanding around this problem, around boundary setting through boundaries.me, and setting my goals so that I can become a person, the person God created me to be.
