How do you fight back against narcissistic mom?
My mother is an undiagnosed narcissist. I'm a big psychology and psychiatry nerd and am very confident in this diagnosis. My mom is also so harsh on me, no matter what I do, she magnifies the mistakes and acts like my accomplishments were a stroke of luck. I'm teaching myself Arabic and have gotten very good and she still claims that somebody is doing it for me. I have 2 younger brothers that are treated far better than me. She lies, takes my things, and is so manipulative that I don't have words for it. Please help.

Are you suggesting I kill my mother?!

I don't believe your accomplishments have anything to do with luck. its your hard work, don't give up. don't seek your mothers approval: do it for yourself.

Have internal peace in yourself. In a long run, she would realize how unfair she's been to you.

don't fight back . that just fuels her ego . i know from experience.
however , if she gets violent , you must document this ( WITHOUT LETTING HER KNOW ) by recording it on your phone , taking images of , God forbid , any type of injuries , and take note of what happens on a notes or diary app .
if anything happens to you , there'll be evidence for that .
i hope youre doing okay . you can contact me if you need a friend

Don't seek her approval.
Keep your distance and don't tell her stuff, or your plans.

How old are you? Are you close to going to university? Try and keep your plans private from her.
