The cycle of abuse is my h and me. The Narcissistic cycle is my mother and me.

She's definitely the narcissist, but I played my part in power struggles with her.

Husband and I have the cycle of abuse as the only way we have sex. We are both to blame.

I am damaged goods. Just hoping to be a healthy, whole person in and of and by myself.
