One of the hardest things I've had to deal with is being called a liar, bully, or cynic by my narcissistic parent. My parent vehemently denies any abuse in my childhood. What's worse is my parent often says that my memory is flawed, and I can't remember any good. I've been trying to cope, because holding on to these things is not good for either me or my parent.
