Hayley, could there be Asperger’s running in your family? What you describe as your mum’s tantrums or you lashing out when overwhelmed may well be autistic meltdowns. Just a thought

I tried to view the 2 part series on YouTube. It says the videos are private.

Intermittent reinforcement does bring on a cocktail of neurotransmitters when feelings of anticipation are relieved, absolutely. And serve to keep you guessing and keep you from leaving a relationship like this. Just as you start to build your resolve and see the behaviour for what it is, They reward you. Usually once I’d calmed down from the anticipation frenzy (frantic pushing of buttons), and given up… my reward would probably come. But never at the times one would expect.

Obsessive compulsive disorder is completely unrelated, also.

I think it’s important not to call things disorders when that is not what they are. The response to intermittent reinforcement isn’t actually disordered at all, it’s a perfectly normal response to that kind of treatment.

So almost 22 years with a narcissist- and I’m just figuring it out. We have 2 kids together and I moved to another country to be with him. I’m grateful in a lot of ways for the experiences I’ve had here – managed to establish myself professionally etc.. but at home? I’m persona non-grata. What a wake-up call! Need out, ASAP – but need to take care of teenage children as well. Confusing 🤔
