		<description>Hi ChildofNarcissism,

Thank you for your thoughtful response and the questions you so courageously ask. I&#039;m sorry it took me so long to even discover I had your comment waiting for approval. 

That you are asking these questions is a huge testament to who you are as a person. I&#039;m glad our paths have crossed.</description>

		<description>I just found this blog today.  3/24/2008.  What an eye-opener.  At the age of 47, I realize now, only now, what has happened to me.  This blog has been a Godsend, and I cannot tell you how much it means to me to be reading this material.

I was raised by a NPD.  He scores 9 out of 9 on the test.  

My god, what I have gone through!  And I thought this was &#039;normal&#039;.  Now I understand so much.  And I have so much healing to do, I don&#039;t even know where to start.  But I now know to start.

Worse yet, I&#039;m afraid I&#039;ve picked up on some of these NPD attributes.  Have I become this creature?  Have I hurt my family?  I have to face up to the fact that 1) I have been damaged by a NPD father, and 2) I may have passed at least some of this type of pain onto my own family.  

Lord help me.

Keep this up.  If one NPD picks up on this and see&#039;s themself, if only for a moment, as the monster they are then maybe there&#039;s hope.

You asked, &quot;where my brains went&quot;.  Where did mine go?  Maybe another question to ask is, what horrible thing did we do to ourselves to compensate for these narcissists, and can we heal?</description>
