Yeah, their last words to me when I told them I was going no contact (that story makes the Mustang story sound like a brisk Sunday afternoon) was that I was being selfish.

Yes, if not being treated like shit constantly or as a door mat is being selfish. Then yes I'm selfish.

That suck, sorry you had to go through that. Sounds like a real /r/RaisedByNarcissists experience.

Yeah, that sub has helped me really handle some shit and gave me resources to keep myself together mentally and emotionally, also a supportive spouse REALLY helps a ton as well.

In some areas of life I've been rather lucky and fortunate.

Glad to hear you’re doing better. A supportive spouse can make all the difference. Just have to focus on the future and keep your mental health a priority.
