I don't think I'm a narcissist and I don't think my brother is one, either. He just doesn't want me in his life. I think he's possibly an alcoholic. But I don't know why he's minimizing contact with me. I would be open to ANY explanation. How nice if I could just diagnose him with narcissism and wash my hands. I would not be living in this torment. But the truth is, I don't know, and I don't think he will ever tell me why we were so close for 40+ years, and then suddenly estranged. Hence why I'm not okay.
Very helpful talk!! Thank you for sharing
In throwing in the towel- my high adaptability has become a liability. No more!
