I am 24 and have made a good life for myself, I was a really good kid and never got into trouble!

She invites me over and then tries to fight with me about stupid stuff (like my brother’s alcoholism, things that happened when I was a kid that she says never happened, my husband and I planning our first child!)

I end up telling her I need to go home because her arguments escalate and she won’t let it go until she wins!

She was verbally abusive to me as a kid, it took a year of counseling to accept that my mother doesn’t treat me with respect or love.

I have come to terms with the fact that she will not change, and although I love her because she is my mother, I do not like her as a person.

I honestly never want to see her face again.

I am a happy person, but when I see her I am miserable and end up leaving her house looking and feeling like the bad guy.

What do I do?
I cut her off completely for 6 months and she is back to her old tricks again!
I wrote her a 5 page letter about how she hurts me and why I don’t like seeing her anymore.

She told me it was B.S. and said she was keeping the letter to show me what a bad daughter I am!!!

As a libra male..i know this for sure. This will let you know how to bring down those of us that think the world cannot live without us or that we are special and hurt u Just out of therapy…i know the truth about myself so i wanted to help others defend themselves against emotional hurt. So here’s how to:
1. make a libra male leave you (if thats your goal)
2. to make a libra male want you more.
Ignoring us..taking away what we desire and NEED most…ATTENTION

We use the SILENT TREATMENT when we are defeated….know, read and use this to your advantage. A libra hurt my sister…so now im exposing all of us!

Very much as a drug addict Libra males would react to the absence of his particular drug. The Libra male constantly consumes (really, preys upon) adoration, admiration, approval, applause, attention and other forms of Narcissistic Supply (attention). When lacking or deficient, a Narcissistic Deficiency Dysphoria sets in. The Libra male is and looks depressed, his movements slow down, his sleep patterns are disturbed (he either sleeps too much or becomes insomniac), his eating patterns change (he gorges on food or is unable even to look at it). He is be constantly dysphoric (sad), anhedonic (finds no interest in the world, no pleasure in anything or in any of his former pursuits and interests).

He is subjected to violent mood swings (mainly rage attacks) and all his (visible and painful) efforts at self-control fail. He may compulsively and ritually resort to an alternative addiction – alcohol, drugs, reading. This constitutes a futile effort of the narcissist both to escape his predicament – and to sublimate his aggressive urges. His whole behaviour seems constrained, artificial, full of effort and toil.

The libra male gradually turns more and more mechanical, detached, unreal. His thoughts constantly wander or become obsessive and repetitive, his speech may falter, he appears to be far away, in a world of his narcissistic fantasies, where Narcissistic Supply is aplenty.

He withdraws from this painful world which knows not how to appreciate his greatness, special skills and talents, potential, or achievements. The Libra thus ceases to bestow himself upon a cruel universe, punishing it for its shortcomings, its inability to realise how unique the narcissist is. A schizoid mode sets in: the Libra isolates himself, a hermit in the kingdom of his hurt. He minimises his social interactions and uses “messengers” to communicate with the outside. Devoid of energy, the Libra can no longer pretend (be fake) or succumb to social conventions. His former compliance gives way to open withdrawal (a rebellion of sorts). His former smiles are transformed to frowns, courtesy becomes rudeness, emphasised etiquette used as a weapon, an outlet of aggression, an act of violence.

The Libra, blinded by pain, will try to hide it, (giving you the impression he does not care, when he really does alot) seeks to restore his balance, to take another sip of the narcissistic nectar. In his quest, the narcissist Libra males turns to and upon those nearest to him. His real attitude emerges: for him, they are but tools, one-dimensional instruments on the path to gratification, Sources of Supply or pimps of such supply, catering to his narcissistic lusts.

He regards them as shallow, no longer functioning objects. In his wrath, he tries to mend them by forcing them to perform again, to function. This is coupled with horrendous and torrential self-flagellation, a deservedly self-inflicted punishment, or so the libra male narcissist feels. In extreme cases of deprivation, the narcissist may entertain suicidal thoughts, this is how deeply he loathes his self and his condition.

Through all this, the Libra is beset by a pervading sense of nostalgia. It is a malignant variety, harking back to a past, which never existed except in the thwarted grandiosity of the Libra. The longer the lack of Narcissistic Supply (attention), the more this past is glorified, re-written, the more you are missed and mourned. This serves to enhance all the other negative feelings. Put together, it already amounts to what might be clinically described as depression.

The Libra then glides into the shores of paranoia (what if i cant get her back?). From his mental closet, he draws a model of a prosecuting world (like its your fault and blame), incorporating in it those around him and events in his recent life. This gives meaning to what is erroneously perceived by the libra as a sudden shift from over supply to under or to no supply (such over and under valuations are typical of him). The apparent diminishing of the Narcissistic Supply is best explained by a theory of conspiracy. The narcissist libra male then – in pain, in despair, in fear – embarks upon an orgy of self-destruction intended to generate “alternative Supply Sources” (attention) at any cost. (mostly

I’m sorry about your sister being hurt by a Libra. I know how it feels to be in love and then be hurt by a libra. Most of what you have said is right…about alcohol abuse and insomnia…and about the attention seeking part. I feel they shoot themselves in the toe all the time. But then, in Chris Rock’s words,” If you haven’t contemplated murder…you haven’t been in love!” ….

A good thing to do would be to take her to a doctor. The doctor will be able to assess her situation as well as tell you of the treatment programs and alcohol rehab that you should take her to. You can also check out the links below that I have provided. These contain lists of the alcohol rehabs in the area you have specified. I really hope that your friend gets well soon. It’s always tough to see a loved one suffering from the effects of alcohol addiction. Good luck.

There’s this Center for Marital and Family therapy in Manhattan. You could try checking that out and see if they do treatment programs for alcoholics like you. Otherwise, they could help you patch up things with your husband and to better your relationships at home.

Good luck!

What the ef is this person on? I’ve searched and searched and can’t find anything, but other than a bottle of booze, I don’t know what I’m looking for.

Help!
A couple of notes to add after seeing some of the answers:
1. I have talked to this person repeatedly. They are a long-time alchohol abuser and used to being accused of things. Well versed in denying things. Of course, everything is denied.
2. I know it is a drug of some sort and not a medical condition because it just happens to spring up on the weekends and never manages to interfere with work.
3. Have found a bunch of ambien – would this do it?

You may not find anything and ultimately the best way to find out is to ask the person by sharing your concerns with them. However, I used to have a friend who displayed similar behaviour whilst taking cannabis and magic mushrooms. You can find out more information about different types of drugs on many internet sites.
