I was the invisible child in my family. And now I'm the invisible adult. My family dynamic is so toxic and triggering, I just avoid everyone - family, friends, people in general.
Girl, you are not alone. I have gotten to the point where I know who I am defending and it's "me". I don't validate myself by their opinion anymore. This pandemic has sat my arse down and forced me to take a good look . I can be happy alone and that's a big step.
Me, too. I had to cut off a lot of family members as they would be dismissive and treat me poorly. They had gotten used to using me whenever they wanted help, but would never invite me to anything fun so i said enough and dropped them all. I feel so much more peace in my heart.
Yep, same here. Invisible works for me because, I just feel safer staying away from people.
So many expectations, disappointments, judgements and pity from people. I have to take care of me and all that isn't helpful.
Boy is that true. They all used me, but when I needed help, there was crickets. Not my parents, they loved me, but my siblings. I just don't understand
The problem with boundaries, is the problem with bullies. You can set the boundaries, they just don't respect them....so we become "invisible" to attempt to avoid the nasty and mean people. They still seek us out. Nothing a bully likes better than someone who just wants to live their life quietly. Invisibility is an attempt at self protection. Bullies will literally come through your door just to get to you.
Yes, they want to steal your joy and happiness too
That lesson took me till I was in my 30's to learn always trying to get along w/people and excusing there behavior. Now in my 40's I just start screaming at them and call them on there bs because they have no right coming to my door to steal my happiness when before I would have felt guilty for screaming now I know it's the only language they listen too. If they would have came at me in the right way to begin with they wouldn't be screamed at. Since I am a nice guy the screaming really throws them off cause they think I am going to be a push over...Take your power back
I found that instead of becoming invisible, if we build a solid self image and know our personal values then no one can bring us down till we are alive❤
@@peter1835 Haha that sounds funny, but good for you.
@@peter1835
Brutality is ALL they understand. 💩
I have been psychologically erased by both parents and when I reached out to my brother and sister for help as I was going through the worst experience of my life with the gaslighting narcissism, they ignored me too. The erasure is complete. I am now completely no contact with all of them because if they want to psychologically erase me, I'll finish the job by removing myself physically too. The therapy I started revealed I have been gaslit all my life and I was never allowed to have my own thoughts and feelings.
Sooo my narc used to use my trauma against me to manipulate me and control me. *i* used to end up using these sentences because literally all we did was fight and it was SO frustrating. For example, whenever we used to argue, if it didn’t go his way, he’d threaten to leave me. Initially it worked and he’d start packing his bags, sending me into a tailspin (hello, abandonment issues). Eventually he did this so often that i would literally roll my eyes and be like “ok, here we go again”. Eventually he realized that this didn’t work. I definitely grey rocked him without even knowing what it was. I would accuse him so often of cheating, but he would conclude that it was me going “you’re imagining things”, “you have issues”, “you’re upset over nothing”. I was referred to a software expert who helped me clone his phone and laptop from which i got evidence of him cheating and I plan to seek for a divorce really soon. Are you doubting your partner or feels like he or she is cheating, send him a message:instagram.com/rickhack101
You'll be ok soon
I started to become visible to myself when I recognised my inner child. She needs help and I started to parent her myself with patience, kindness and compassion. The grown up me provides for her.
Me too.
I'm a good boy. 🤭
A tough but necessary process
Recently my dad asked me to take a few days to help him move a car across two states. He offered food and gas. He recently gave my brother and his wife’s son a new car.
I told him I would do it for 500 a day. If he can buy them cars he can compensate my time.
He raged. And told me that since my mother passed away last year I already got stuff from him from her estate because he bought everything she had. They were divorced for 40 years.
I went from being the scapegoated child to being the invisible adult.
It’s funny because as a child, my dream was to be invisible. I had a fear of being seen and heard. I’m STILL afraid of being seen and heard.
I never considered the concept of becoming invisible to my own self, which is exactly what happened.
I hear you ❤ xx Same here x
I also was the invisible child and spent most of my adult life like that until I recently broke out of it at the age of 45 when I went no contact from my narcissistic family and former workplace. I have put in a lot of time healing myself, tending to self care for myself and validating my voice and childhood trauma
in the same shoe meloney.. ive been on it for 8 years now.. and like he said have to give time for the new self to be absorbed by the system... also try somatic therpay to speed up healing..
Thank you. This is freeing. Yes.
Tell me how to do it.... 😢
There is very little information about this topic out there. You are an amazing teacher.
I'm aware of this, this is why I started my channel. I'm glad it was helpful, more to come!!
Yes, he truly is
I have listened to dozens of videos, podcasts, books, etc., but I just spent an hour transcribing this video it seemed so spot on. My father was domineering, unstable, scary and --in the eyes of this child-- the source of my survival. Since he passed I feel lost. My new mantra is "What is required by me to feel visible to me?" --because so far I have ZERO idea.
I was so invisible that I thought no one could recognize my face as I grew up. Like my face was a blank with no features. Has anyone else experienced this? This went on into my adulthood.
I know they don’t see exactly who I am. Somebody told me I looked like some actress and I got excited so I looked her up. Completely different hair color, face shape, etc. Makes me wonder if I’m really interpreting myself correctly.
I’ve always thought “They won’t remember me” or “They won’t recognize me”. Never thought about why I thought people I had met or knew wouldn’t recognize me from a perspective of being abused by Narc parents. Makes sense now
So profound. So true. I wish I'd heard this 40 years ago. I was completely invisible to myself and others, and in so much emotional pain. I'd been ignored, neglected and abused throughout childhood and had just begun trying to raise my own 2 children with nothing inside me to give. It's all worked out well as I re-raised myself alongside them. They're 43 and 40 and at 65 I'm a new, fulfilled and loved person.
I am so happy for you. Your story reminds me of my mom. She too tried to raise us with limited capacity. I wish she too would have learned about narcissism and had the chance to re-parent herself and become visible to herself. We lost her 6 years ago at just 66 years old.
@@Bloominglotus19 I'm sorry that is your mom's story. And yours. It leaves an emptiness that's hard to fill. I wish you love and peace in great abundance from now on 💖
@@yamlwoz 💕
Beautiful ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Trying to find my new self now. Any tips?
Assertiveness doesn’t work until you realize/know/BELIEVE
“I am worthy and deserving of what I am asking.”
It’s all about recovering from your caregivers treating you with low regard, treating you as though you are worthless.
They were wrong, in a most destructive way.
Hey Jerry thank you for filling your videos with so much information.
I have been invisible in every group I have ever been in, just use me but I’m not liked . My childhood family, in my husbands family, with my husband himself and even with moms and kids groups. It seems to just be who I am. Invisible. I’m so use to it that it just is my reality and I don’t want to be seen or loved now.
Someone acknowledging me even with a hello is so uncomfortable
Unfortunately I can really relate to what you are saying. I am sorry other people have created this feeling. Your last line really hit home...I immediately wonder WHY they are being "nice," and have gotten to the point where I am leery of letting anyone get too close because of their inevitable expectations. Just wanted you to know You are seen and understood. Grateful for channels like this where we all can reach out and feel less alone. 💗
@@denisel780 ❤🩹
❤🩹
I am not always invisible, despite my best efforts,, but I am terrified of those who treat me kindly and like my preferences matter.. It’s so unfamiliar from my childhood so considerate people freak me out, guess it’s a feeling of shame, I think:” If you knew me you wouldn’t be so nice to me.” Gosh that sounds so crazy, I am a good person, but those feelings are there. The more normal a person is the more scared I am of them. I meet a crazy self-obsessed manipulator-it feels like home😂.
It all begins with self love and seeing your value and worth. It's extremely difficult for the family of origin to see you changing because they know they are losing control. It's actually uncomfortable to watch, but it's necessary. These three stages of resistance are 💯 spot on. You will be tested repeatedly and learning to respond and not react when being baited lets you take your power back. Some family members won't be able to handle the change and walk away and that's ok. Others will begin to come out of the fog themselves and start finding their own value. My heart goes out to anyone experiencing this because it's very difficult. The good thing is it does get better. Keep putting in the inner work and you will become stronger than you know. It doesn't matter if they approve of the new you. All that matters is that you do! Keep going and growing and watch your life completely transform for the better. 💛Excellent video as always Jerry👍
@@supernova2875 Your welcome.💛🙏🕊️💪
Self-respect not self love…
Golden: Thank you for the encouraging comment.
It's tough when your mother can't remember your name... never said your name.
I was the invisible child/adult. I too avoid, since my mother manipulates and triangulates siblings against each other. Always a competition and my mother, golden child and oldest sisters are either narcs or at the very least narc tendencies. I tried to get together with them on July 4th. I was talked over, and most would move to the other side of the room when I sat down. I thought I was just seeing things. So I got up and moved over by them. And in less than 5 mins they all left to go to different side of the room. For days after, I had nightmares that woke me up.
Not sure I can handle it anymore
God wants you to know He loves you:)
He will show up soon.
Look for a change tonight:)
Hallelujah!
And don't forget to tell Him thank you.
So sorry. My two older adult kids went off on a 4th of J trip and left out my youngest daughter, their half sister. (28) I had to talk her through the 4th and then she found a friend to hang out with. She's the truthful empath of the family.
Wow! That's harsh
My history is so similar
Maintain regular contact with only one of five siblings for past 7 years.
You must be doing something RIGHT!
@@arashigumdrop exactly, I'm 1 of 10. Maintain contact with only a few. What do you mean by RIGHT?
Because I feel like crap, distancing myself but at the same time, refuse to be treated like I have been by them anymore.
I cut all my family out of my life
They became very dangerous to my mental health, now I no longer self sabotaging my self.
Just today, my cousin said I have a tendency to be invisible. She's not one of the narcissists.
I just blocked my MIL because she kept texting me late at night when I asked her not to. Also she backs me in to a corner with some drama she dreams up- that really involves her son, my husb, but she pulls me in, every time. I can either defend myself or ignore her- two behaviors that I don't like being trapped into.
My parents were lieing to us about my fathers homosexuality my entire childhood. I was the one who figured it out and screamed it through the entire house hold. I was the one who let the cat out of the bag. Boy was I the most hated one after that. Was always hated anyway but massively more after that.
tbf you shouldn't of done that
@@harpsailorharp6716gg why not? Mind you it was 1988 but why not?
I noticed this is about a year old, however, the impact on being ignored and invisible can result in children seeking adverse attention by being rebellious, disruptive, lying, bullying, and engaging in delinquent activities. Negative attention is better than no attention in these children’s eyes. This carries into adulthood for most of these people if no psychiatric help is received. The root of this lies in the parents emotional immaturity, who may also be abusive, and/or have addictions. I know an adult male who is a prime example of this. Very unfortunate.
Your spot on! 🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
For anyone who be curious, doing it all at once resulted in me depression sleeping for a year and I chose to become homeless and live in my car for 6 months and couch hop. The intensity of emotions and maneuvering everybody else's is a challenge. Even figuring out what my boundaries even are, what my feelings even are. Im almost to the point of taking care of myself and being alone, but I relied so heavily on the opinion and emotions of my abusive parents I went through them to gain validation and closure that I can be an adult and stuff. Everybody "close" to me tells me it's mental illness, but I just learned to stop asking them what my own thoughts and actions are lol. Most the time they have worse mental health than I do and cannot help regardless. I've done all of this without getting prescribed onto any bipolar or mental health medication, I mainly have smoked herbal, like ground up herbs and marijuana to ground myself and relax. It's like my brain is splitting half the time, so the weed helps me cry and feel things. Even violent things. The therapist I did have was convinced by my toxic family I was going crazy but that is simply not the case. So even therapists can be an extremely abusive catalyst and environment if they're trying to instead medicate you for something that just needs a natural solution.
I think this is one of your best videos by far and yes it starts with childhood being invisible dodging bullets and we grow up with a lot of anxiety one thing I found out growing up you have to show up for yourself before you can show up for other people and you never have to get validation from no one this was pretty deep
Yes. So heartbreakingly sad and heavy...
Thank you Cynthia, I'm glad you liked the video. As adults we can now choose to be visible, also in an environment that wants us to be invisible. And we can choose to give our kids an environment that encourages them to be visible ❤️
learned this the hard way, until i could escape the toxic family and narc partner i put boundaries first then worked on self love health and peace , the more i respect myself boundaries get stronger
Keep it up. "The more I resect myself boundaries get stronger", love that!
I can be around children. They're honest and simply need empathy and loving guidance. I just can't handle most adults.
this was so uncomfortable, painful to hear, profound and resonating Jerry. will need another 5 repeat watches to cement the information and content internally. much appreciated and grateful for the work you do as always Jerry.
I'm also happy having my twin flame back, after being separated for months. All thanks to Mr dele whom help me to get back my ex again. I will suggest y'all to get help from him and it work within 48hours contact or Whatsapp him 👇👇👇
I was ready to receive the message, and still need at least 3 replays to cement it in my consciousness
I'm currently enmeshed. Rent is high (in all 50 states) Wage is low, and a migrant crisis took out my NYC Uber Eats opportunities that have kept me afloat. When I finish my technical education, I probably will go no contact. They'll smear me, they'll keep comparing me to my cousins who grew up in the same house for most of their childhood, while my parents divorced before i was 8 and i lived in 13 different places in my childhood, nothing I could ever do will satisfy these boomers.. sadly narcissistic personality disorder seems to thrive in boomers(not all but a majority), they RELISH in my suffering when I cant pay $2,275 for a 1 bedroom at $20 per hour. Duh. 2+2=4, but to these narcissistic people... 2+2=22 😭 and yet I now depend on them for help or I'll be homeless.. again..
I was not raised in this, but I married into it. I was young when I married into a toxic family and eventually I didn't even recognize myself in a mirror because I had fallen into the trap. My husband is the invisible one in his family, until someone needs something. I honestly hated myself at my lowest point and quit caring about anyone and anything because I cared too much about things I had no control over. I had a wake-up call (that still brings tears to my eyes today) and I have been on a path to healthy ever since. My husband has no idea what he even likes because his family did/does his thinking for him. It is quite sad, honestly. Thankfully he did stand up to his mom a time or two, but I don't think it sticks. It was always "my brother's house" or "my brother did this," etc. I was never included and they enjoyed making me invisible. Last Christmas I told my husband that will not attend his family gatherings unless extended family will be there that I enjoy seeing. It took me a long time to make peace with this, but I had to do it! Thank you for your work at exposing these family "secrets."
🙏🏼 never thought I’d feel seen or have a way to articulate my childhood experiences. All is not lost when you realize you’re not alone but there are many others that know just how it felt. Thank you Jerry, and thank you to those who feel safe to share their experiences making my healing journey easier.

This makes so much sense. Of course it's hard to set boundaries with others when you don't have a solid feeling of when you begin and end. It's like trying to put a fence around a cloud.
That makes so much sense now Jerry - thank you xx
..."it's lonely, it's sad". Long story, short...it's a slow, tortuous death, of soul.
I'm "tolerable" I suppose, as long as I continue to provide for others, but remain invisible, with no needs, opinions, feelings, etc..
I am walking dead amongst the living.

Not existing as a target of care makes self care very hard!!
I am invisible to myself, and I truly believe that I exist through the eyes of others. I know its a wrong belief, and I am working hard to get unstuck.
Even worse, so many people are truly kind to me and even then I don’t feel like I matter or are loveable!
This video is very helpful in becoming more self aware thank you teacher
My sister suffered the most at having to be invisible to survuve our parents narcissism.
I love you sister.
I walk around here trying very hard to be quiet as a mouse.
I chose to be invisible because my father was violent. Most every evening I would go to my room, play with my doll, and tremble when I heard my father in another room yelling and hitting. My sense of self is vastly improved since then, but I have worked on "self" for decades.
Certainly invisibility is essential for survival in some families.
Then we work on becoming visible for our recovery. Thanks for watching
❤🩹
Videntem videre; my true identity is within the relationship with God. Silence in front of the blessed Sacrament , alone in an empty church, or alone with a coffee cup at home in silence and prayer, is opportunities for God to let me be my true self!
I don’t know how to watch this video. One and a half minute in and I have to pause…..it hurts too much…..
Thank God that I grew up in a social environment with good people in the exterior of the family of origin. Count my blessings, find some balance and start the day 🤔 I will watch later, promise ❣️
I've watched this video at least 3x and each time I nodded in agreement. Tried assertiveness, being more visible etc, and following other people's advice, but my anxiety heightened. A couple of years ago during an interview with a celebrity, I heard a question that stuck with me: do you need a coach or do you need therapy? Now I do self-work based on my needs at the moment. As a result, I've started to work with a coach on honouring my commitments to myself. When I feel my resistance to the tasks coming up, I explore that resistance through journaling:Why do I resist this? What issue am I fighting against? I think we can't do action-based work (coaching) without reflective work(therapy).
Thank you for the work you do. It is greatly appreciated.
I would go to lunch with my brothers and father and when I spoke, they would stop and look and they just go back to speaking without recognition.
My family now consists of my 17 month German Shepherd & out-of-state brother who's been with NPD woman long time
Me too! And I come to the conclusion that spending less and less time on RUclips and stop commenting brings all the more healing, because you get better connection to yourself! And that's what I learned!
Blessings and good bye to everybody!
This sets the stage for people to move forward.
Simple advice. Difficult to implement.
I agree, this is life long work
I’m always afraid my real self will scare away others so I just make myself small. My real self isn’t that bad! I just don’t know a lot of people who have seen me. I’m trying to be more me lately (with help from you and others) and it’s nice.
I remember being made invisible for a long time but as you know Jerry now that I'm going to New York, no one wants to treat me as invisible anymore. They're trying to make up for lost time . I remember what you said; (you have to embrace the bad, remember the bad don't look back, although they can do a nice thing). Keep up the great work with the videos 😇😇💝😏
I think a lot of us need a video on how we can value and love ourselves; what doing that work looks like, what we're supposed to base it on, and all that stuff.
We can now understand that narcstc parents are totally different from normal parents
Please define 'Normal.'
The information in this few mins is more than I got in over a year of therapy. You know what you're talking about, and you're brilliant. You look after us who do not have someone to look after us or have learned not to. Thank you, Jerry.
Don't be. I felt that. And, yes, I think trying to set boundaries before you know who you are is like trying to put wallpaper on the walls of a house that's falling down.
This entire video was profound for me. Thank you so much. I took copious notes lol.
I really, really appreciate and resonate with the issue about "boundaries." Ive almost come to despise the word, because i knew there is something deeper in me missing or absent from being able to even assert and follow through on my own boundaries for myself, yet most people just say, "Just work on your boundaries," AS IF it we're just that simple. It's not. There's deeper work that must be done before that happens. The way you explained that here makes a lot of sense to me!
When you made the example of trying to fly the 747 before the single plane, that was powerful and emotional for me. That's exactly what it feels like. Realizing I'm still in training wheels regarding a lot of these things (as an adult) has been internally mortifying, which I know gets reflected in my emotional field, as you said.
Thank you for your professional, forthright and helpful insights and experience. I will be listening to more of your videos!
Always great wisdom in your videos, thankful for each one you do..❣️🙏
Same ☺️💓
Thank you Jerry. This really is meaningful to me and I so appreciate your teachings. 🙏🏼💕🥰
Ps love your shirt! ☺️
You're most welcome, Sheryl. I love this shirt too, thanks!
Oh my gosh... I think you just explained why I've felt and been (un) seen as invisible my entire adult life in your first two sentences!
I'm glad it resonated with you ❤️
This is so useful and supportive, thank you! I feel ready to heal this wound of invisibility and to be visible to myself first 🙏🥰
So glad to hear your content again! Always amazing! 😍
I unconsciously did this through very difficult times in my life. I did not know what I was practicing seeing myself. I am unable to join 'super-families' because they need one to stop seeing themselves and see the super-family only.
❤️
Thank you thank you for helping me see my behaviors that do not serve me. I heard “first see yourself first work on me.”
That was very important for me to hear. I have been so “other” focused that this is how I gage me. A life long work for sure in becoming me! So blessed to have a guide through this journey and challenging area I’m in right now. God Bless you! ♥️

I love your shirt jerrryyy colorfulllll :)
I hate being the invisible one in my toxic patriarch family. It hurts. I'm not seen nor listened to. And when I am spoken to it often is a put down. I'm definitely the scape goat person which is why i rarely come around.
His shirt is pretty and vibrant in this one. ❤️ I like all the colors.
Being invisible was incredibly painful. A major family drama opened my eyes and I am relieved to say that after therapy. research. Helpful videos like yours I am invisible no more. Thank you for your teachings.
Thank you for making this video! 🙏
This is spot on for me and now I feel that I can finally move forward and not feel stuck.
This also explains why I cry my eyes out every time I see a video/movie where someone make someone else happy, bacuse the receiving person is seen/visible. And something deep down within me knows that I want to be visible too, so I express that in emotions whitout not knowing why until now. I just thought I was extremely sensible before.
You are so welcome, as adults we can learn to be visible to ourselves, this is the work ❤️
This was awesome. Thanks
You hit the nail on the head. Hearing you say this out loud validates so much, thank you
Jerry, you really do have a thorough knowledge of what it is like to be abused. Not many people understand what it's like to behave in a way that makes you invisible. With boyfriends or friends they mention sometimes I seem invisible to them and they forget I am there. I lived with my cousins for a few months and I was told it seemed I was invisible when I was there they urged me to not be so invisible. Another time I was house sitting for a women for two weeks. When she came home she asked me if I was really there, which I was everyday and even had a couple of friends over a few times, and she did believe me as she knew my friends and they thanked her for letting us use her canoes as she lived on a lake. Anyway, she went on to say also used the term that it seemed I was invisible. What both of them were saying, is that I never leave a trace that I was around. Every time I left a room I left it exactly as it was as I would keep a mental note of where everything was if I should move it. When I was living with my cousins I made a point as not to talk to much, stay out of the way and be quiet. Of course this was all subconscious behavior and completely normal to me. I learned the skills of invisibility growing up with two narcissitic sisters and father.
With all that said, thank you so much for the video's!!
YESSSS ANOTHER JERRY VIDEO!
Thank You!
This makes perfect sense, thank you jerry
I love your shirt! And what a great choice to go with for a talk on (in-)visibility!
Thanks!
so true. can't do it all at once. first, create a self. become visible to your self. praise yourself. gather compliments.
Great video!
Thank you very much.
thank you Jerry
Where have you been all my life Jerry….you know everything about me!!!! Ty for your great job
Thank you so much for your videos. You really know what you are talking about. It is really hard work to escape this hell. Being punished, ashamed for being visible, for existing, for having needs, being humiliated for having success ,for trying to be my authentic self.

It's funny that my siblings see what is wrong and where it starts, but mimic the same behaviors of my mom to some degree. I guess they are playing their roles too. I am turning my face into the wind and learning to be alone and what that means and feels like. I now have as little contact with all of them as possible. I watch and wait to hear from any of them because the phone works both ways, but there are crickets. I'm learning just to accept that but admit it's very hard. I'm very glad I found your channel because you're helping me understand these dynamics in a proper context.
Thank You. Yes A Building Does Need A Foundation. I Noticed That Assertive Action Was Expected (Demanded) But Self Work Wasn't. I Felt SOO Much Guilt/Shame Over That One. But The Killer Was I Got Pinged For Bravado. When I Tried To Follow Instructions. Without A Having Any Work Done On The Foundation. (The Self) So I Did Just Give Up On The Whole Idea Of Assertiveness. It's Just Not For Me. I Don't Have The Right Stuff.
