Raised By a Narcissist: That Woman aka My Mother
"She was supposed to love me. Instead, she broke me."
This poignant and powerful memoir explores the lasting impact of growing up with a narcissistic mother — a woman who controlled, manipulated, and withheld love in ways that left deep emotional scars.
Through honest reflection, this book shares:
A childhood shaped by conditional love
A mother who distorted reality and denied my truth
A personal journey of seeking understanding in a world that refused to see the pain
But this is not only a story of pain. It is a story of resilience — and ultimately, of healing.
This memoir is for you if:
You have ever questioned your worth because of a toxic parent
You have experienced emotional manipulation or gaslighting
You have felt overlooked, dismissed, or emotionally unsafe
You are not alone. These pages offer understanding, strength, and hope.
With quiet courage and emotional depth, I share my truth so that others may find light in theirs.
