What is it called when you're sick and another person won't help you, but, starts talking about how sick they are instead? What if they're so involved with listing what they had for breakfast and how they feel that they won't even help you..like call and ambulance or drive you home. I just had it happen...again. I'm fine now, but, is that her being a narcissist or a hypochondriac? Or a narcissistic hypochondriac. I am confused. And not just by my diabetes. I am confused by HER.

Short version. Ma had to go to the store. I took her. Waited in the car what seemed like a long time. Felt odd. More errands. She won't listen. I went down halfway home. Lost my way in this tiny town, blurred vision, confusion.. knew it was blood sugar. Pulled over, asked her to drive or call an ambulance. She refused and listed her many health problems. Including her breakfast. I have no idea what she said after that. Yak yak yak yak. I got us home. I took my meds and ate bananas. I am fine now.
what is that called????
narcism (probably spelled wrong)...
since you are left in a car alot, you should put packs of peanut crackers (or something) in your car and/or have some gatorade or water!
can't believe you took her around today!!!
FUCKED UP, is what I'd call it.
The woman is going to keep pushing her narcissistic, craziness until you all end up seriously hurt or worse. Grow some poisonous greens and slip them in her salad.
In some instances homicide can double as a public service. If you'd have totally passed out while driving, a whole innocent family could have bought the farm because of a demonic old lady...
This is starting to sound scarey.
I always take her. I will always do that for her. I usually have crackers..not today. She said it would be just a minute. She lied. We had to run Mountain Dew out to my brother. She left me sitting there too. I didn;t know we were going there too. If I had been less confused I would have realized her grocery bags were in the car and raided them. But, it got too bad to think straight and I shouldn't have been driving. She can drive, she just refuses.
It's Sunday in hickville. There was no one else on the road. Not one car.
Sucks to be you today Little Edie. Sorry, DD.
I can sing. Wanna hear? Oh, I have the saddest life. LOL!
you must be a very difficult person to live with. too much Drama Mama!
I know. I'm a terrible person. Ask my family.
I should just go die so I don't bother anyone. Bwaaaaa ha ha.
You need a vacation. Take a cruise to Alaska with the neighbor's dog and let the whole neighborhood go to Hell while you're gone.
don't you ever get off the computer?
gee, i think someone pissed in that one anon's cornflakes this morning...
there is something seriously wrong with your mother. is this new behavior or ahs she always been like this??
it seems she fails to make emotional connections and thinks only of herself. poor you.
defend yourself by making her wait while you prepare yourself with drinks, snacks,reading material, what ever you need for one of these marathon car expeditions.
seriously, you could have died.
6:30 pm -we can't choose our relatives, or our health problems.
drama is often unavoidable.
7:07,
Go play in traffic.
Pat,
Good to know you were alone on the roads. Around here the beach hungry tourists are thicker then thieves. Come January it's a whole different story. LOL

I just live with my computer on. I think lots of people do. I go wash dishes, pick up, come back, read, post something, go out to the garden and pick, come back, post, start a load of wash....you know, live. It's a life. Maybe you should get one and stop coming here.
Yes. She has always been like this. But, only the family knows this side.
It's called fucking ignorance, I live with this kind of shit, too. Only it's not my Mom(RIP), it's my me,me,me kids. I'd probably have a stroke if only once they would think about my feelings and not their own wants and needs.
Ahh, Maureen, how I know your pain.
Anon 7:07. STFU !! You're boring.
DONT EVER get off your puter! :-) I would die from boredom if you do. LOL

P.S. I hope you know the K is me. Sometimes I'm just too lazy to sign into this damn blogger. It won't let me use the same login as my gmail, so when I log into one, it logs out of the other. Piece of crap.
narcissistic hyppochondriac? (sp?)
DD, I don't know what I would do in your place, seriously.
Pat,
Do you take insulin? I ask this because this is one the main reasons I am freaking over it. I am thisclose to being upgraded to the needle (type 2 here).
I was diagnosed 10 years ago and I am at the top of the pill dosage now.
I will probably find out about this at my next appointment next week.
Now I am really freaking (internally).
I am so sorry you had to go thru this. I have not said this before on here but I have to agree. Your Mom is a nut and there is something wrong with her.
(((Big Hugs)))
Yes, Heidi, but, the medication keeps it under control. It's not a problem as long as I have regualr meals. It's no biggie. She made me miss lunch and kept pushing me on when I told her I was having a problem. Then it got bad. She ignores me sometimes amd I don't know what to do.
It's too much to put in here, I don't want to clog up your blog, but here's a link to a post on another board. I hope it's not against the rules. http://74.50.2.42/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=225&topic_id=135&mode=full&page= It's a list of characteristics of narcissistic mothers. It fits some of DHs mom's foibles. It's on www.motherinlawstories.com
hey girl... stop letting her push your buttons.... when lunch time rolls around tell her "break time,sorry gotta eat" and drive home or to the nearest place you can buy something...STOP letting her manipulate you....you know she's nuts, so do your own thing when needed especially if its for your health....
6:30 Anonymous Anonymous- And it must be hard on your family not to vomit every time you walk in a room. I'll take drama over your crazy ass any day.

If she got off her computer than what would you do all day,because I pretty much guarantee your family ran away from you long ago. Not packed up a few things & walked out, middle of the night sneaking out so you'd never find them. The 8:23 post is mine also.I tried out the Anon bit,but realized I don't give a shit if you know I think your a maggot.
It's called "being my MOL". Always has to top w/e is wrong with you, she already had it and is getting worse! Never fails. I have a rare ear disease, it gives me horrid whirling dizzy spells. I think i'm gonna die but I have to throw up for a few hours 1st. I have had this since I was a kid. Of course, she also has it only worse. I dont even tell her anything. She just hears about it. It's pointless to try to tell her anything. When I die, she will be deader, she'll make sure.
Opps! Thats "MIL"...mother-in-law.
If it's not about her/him then it's unimportant. I cannot stand my husband. But when I leave he will call me, never fails. I told him "I dont call you when you leave, 'cuz I am glad you are gone, why do you bother me when I am gone?" He calls me just to tell me to pick up this or that, I get f'g pissed, it ends up I hang up, so it's a fight again. So, it ends up being all about him again, even when I am f'g gone! His mom is crazy too. has to be about them, always. Even if you are dying, they make sure everyone in town knows they are sad & upset & how it affects them. Its gotta be about THEM! They are the 1st to report bad news, local or national. They have to be the center of attn. at all times. People like that need to just live together and cancel each other out. GGGGRRRR!
"When I die, she will be deader" LMFAOOOOOO! There's a book title.
12:11:00 PM..are they related to my mother??
DD - It's called you're too strong & different for them to understand.
You have a grasp of her (them) but they are really excluded from your- what's the word- core being. And that's a barrier that some people simply cannot fathom.
Especially people who were the alpha controllers over another person's wellbeing can't cope with now being on the receiving end.
I'm not stating this in any good way right now... Need some sleep, and currently your postings are so frequent that I can never catch up with the subject at hand anymore.
Maybe I'll send you an email instead at some point.
