My Personal Account of a Neurotic Mother-in-Law Although I had always heard about the terrible experiences of having a narcissistic mother-in-law, I never imagined that I would experience it myself. I was completely enamored with her son, Charles, and I was certain that our union was intended. However, after we were married, everything was different. I always believed that Lisa, my mother-in-law, 's excessive involvement in her son's life was a testament to her love for him. But following the wedding, things continued to deteriorate. Lisa used to be critical of my cooking, my housekeeping abilities, and even my wardrobe choices. Ruth was never happy with anything I did. I tried to ignore it at first. I didn't want to upset my spouse or create any issues in our union. However, as the criticism persisted, I began to feel more and more alone and depressed. My self-esteem began to suffer since I thought I was incapable of doing anything correctly in Lisa's eyes. I made the decision to give up one day. I was aware that Lisa's actions could no longer have an adverse effect on my marital and mental well-being. I so began to look up strategies for handling a narcissistic mother-in-law. I read a lot of books and found a lot of material online about how to deal with narcissistic people and create boundaries. When I began implementing these tactics, Lisa's behavior gradually began to shift in my eyes. I started by setting up boundaries with Lisa. I made it plain that I would not put up with any more insults or criticism. I would gently but firmly remind Lisa of the limit and the repercussions of crossing it when she did. This made it clearer to Lisa that I would not be taken lightly. I improved my communication abilities as well. I've learnt to communicate my emotions using ""I"" phrases rather than by criticizing or insulting Lisa. In order to better comprehend Ruth's viewpoint and give a helpful response, I also worked on active listening. Lisa eventually learned to accept my limits and improve her communication skills. We had a better relationship, and I was able to keep my marriage to my spouse strong. Get this book to find out more about how to deal with your toxic mother-in-law and keep your marriage together."
