Guest guest Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Do you have a NADA who is EVERYTHING? In conversations with my nada, she is everything and anything. With NO taining, college, university NOTHING.... ZIPPO..... ZILCH... my mother claims to be a physchtrist .... no wait minute, she is a realtor ... no wait a minute, she is eye, ear, and speach specialist... oh wait, she is beauty queen/famous model. The next minute, she is a children's book writer. Oh, did I tell you my NADA claims that she has psych powers and she can read peoples MINDS. I am like ... you have completed a day in any school. My nada has panic attacks when she is in a class or when she takes tests then she quits or doesn't even bother to start anything. It is all a big huge lie ... a fantasy. It makes me angry because I have work so hard to get through classes and paying for college, but my nada lives in this fantasy life where she believes that she is. Also, I feel that she takes my identity and who I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I recommend the book Evil Genes. Someone on this board recommended it first. It talks about how people with personality disorders like BPs and psychopaths are chamelion-like and become the topic du jour. > > Do you have a NADA who is EVERYTHING?

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Ah yes, my nada is an expert the mintue she has an opinion so that means she knows more than others, and when encountering an actual expert with training she becomes quite challenging. This is a big problem with medical doctors because she will not accept what they say even when it sabotages her health severely. One time she put herself in the hospital this way and still (behind the doctor's back) said he didn't know anything and she knew better. I'd say so far she believes she can be a medical doctor, chiropractor, plumber, landscaper, veterinarian, oh I'm probably missing some stuff. Deedome, is this how it is with your nada or does she actually believe (in a multiple personality way) that she is doing all these professions? And yes I've dealt with the vicarious identity problem too....hands off that identity! > > Do you have a NADA who is EVERYTHING? In conversations with my nada, > she is everything and anything.
