Selling all my most prized possessions to get away from the narc
I am super depressed. I've been playing music for a really, really long time and it's been biggest passion in life besides my son and of course he's the biggest one. Anyways, I just put my amplifier on a website to sell it and it sold in 8 minutes. I've had that thing for 15 years and toured the whole United States a couple times with it. So many memories. That and the fact that the amp that I sold is from the United Kingdom and pretty rarely do they come afloat in the states. All of this just because my mom can't admit she is a narcissist and she is abusive to us emotionally. Little short story of why I'm selling my stuff. I confronted my mother as a narc very very casual and very compassionate because I know how hard it can be. And explain to her that the gas lighting and the manipulating everything to control people and the unwanted suggestions, the body shaming, etc. It's bad. Well of course she didn't take it well but I didn't think she would go as far as losing her mind and calling the cops on me for calling her abusive LOL yes that happened. So that night afterwards I took me and Oliver in the room because she was on a rage and I was scared for my child safety. She's banging on the door screaming you open this door? This is my house. I make the rules. And I said no. You are scaring us. Keep knocking and I'll call the police. She then went out to my car and stole my garage door opener and my key to the house that was in my glove box and I called the police on her and it was hilarious because they told her you can't just go taking people's property and she goes. This is my property and they said no it's not. You gave it to him and you can't take anything from him. That's illegal. I showed her and it kind of felt good to be honest. Anyways that night I could hear her rifling around through everything just literally losing her mind right. We wake up the next day and we go and get some stuff from the grocery store and come back and there's an eviction notice on the door for me and my 3-year-old son, her grandson, to be out by the 31st of July. Since then she hasn't been here. One second she left me and him at her house and has been hiding somewhere because likely she is so embarrassed and is trying to play the victim so she doesn't look bad. Narcissists are the worst people in the world and it's even worse when they're your family. Everything I've ever told her she's used against me. Tenfold. Don't trust your parents don't trust anybody who treats you like this. That's the point of this post. It doesn't matter how hard it is. It doesn't matter if you have a cousin that you love and the parent of them are abusive, you just go. Allowing yourself to be around that stuff. Can really really add up and let me tell you I watched that happen to my mom after she grew up in a really abusive household and not only was her household narcissist to be used. But my grandpa was a sociopath you used to beat the crap out of all the girls and molested one of them. My poor grandmother never had a picture without sunglasses on or in a scarf. So I gave her a long chance I really did. I gave her a long-standing chance and I can't take the abuse anymore and I won't. So me and my son aren't going no contact. We've started a GoFundMe. We've reached out to everyone we know for advice or to help. I've sold 90% of my music hetre now, I just want to get me and my kid to safety. If anyone would like a link to help us out, I'd be more than happy to share it with you in a messenger however you prefer. Take care of yourselves and always put yourself above others.
