Covert Narcissistic Parent of "Adult Child" gives away Social Security number of said "child" without permission/consent.

(Preface: I'm 18+. The background of my story will be posted as a reddit link as a reply to this original post, as to respect the rules and properly inform readers at the same time.)

I have a narcissistic parent who pretends to be helpless but is very controlling, remorseless, and relentless. It's my biological mother. My step-father to whom she's remarried is almost just as bad. They recently have been ganging up on me worse than ever even though I haven't done anything wrong. They have done this for years. I face continuous threats of being kicked out of the house. I suffer from constant psychological/verbal abuse on their behalf. It's breaking me down entirely, and I can hardly live at all. I am an empty husk of the person I used to be. I have no energy, and every new day is a parade of insufferable abuse, insecurity, and uncertainty.

Recently, my mother gave my social security number to one of her friends without my consent. They have been doing paperwork behind my back. To my understanding, she does not have the legal authority to do this. I see it as a type of fraud or perjury. I'm deliberating over the possibility of reporting my own mother to the Social Security Administration.

I am worried that I will face credit problems or other legal/financial vulnerabilities down the road because of this situation (SSN being leaked). Scammers are known to use others' SSNs as a way to take out loans and trash the credit of the person to whom the SSN belongs. There's also the danger of having benefits stolen. She assures me that her friend is trustworthy, but I don't know her at all, and this was all done behind my back without my knowledge. I have no trust in this whatsoever, and I am fearful of what will happen down the line.

I've been unemployed for years and have very little savings. I go to a local food pantry to sustain myself. I do tons of work for them around the house, including constant cleaning and watching their pets. I was also an emotionally parentified child, so she makes me act as her therapist on a frequent basis. And if I don't, and I instead attempt to peacefully enforce boundaries, a fight begins, and threats of me being made homeless aren't very far down the line at all. I'm also taking care of one of the pets' healthcare because it basically means death for the pet if I stop (see link in reply). They keep almost killing the cat with the wrong healthcare because they are incompetent and extremely mentally challenged.

How I make this code faster? (Narcissistic numbers)

Hello guys, I have made this code to find all the narcissitstic numbers with max 4 digits and with the power of 4(sry for bad english what I mean is this e.g. 1^(4)+6^(4)+3^(4)+4^((4) <-- this power)) . The thing is I want to modify this code so it can apply for numbers with max 8 digits and with the power of n(again,sry for bad english) (The number n would be given by the user) but if I keep using the same pattern (more for loops, more arrays etc) it would eventually take very long time to run. How can I modify this code so if I use it 8 digits to the power of n it'd still run fast?My guess is some kind of function (with recursion) but I can't figure it out.

Thanks in advance!

    #include &lt;cstdio&gt;
    #include &lt;math.h&gt;
    #define exp 4

    int main()
    {
        int power,w=0,number,digits[10];
        int i,j,k,l;
        int a[10],b[10],c[10],d[10];
        for(int n=0;n&lt;10;n++)
        {
            a[n]=n;
            b[n]=a[n];
            c[n]=b[n];
            d[n]=c[n];
        }
        for(i=0;i&lt;=9;i++)
        for(j=0;j&lt;=9;j++)
        for(k=0;k&lt;=9;k++)
        for(l=0;l&lt;=9;l++)
        {
        number=a[i]*pow(10,3)+b[j]*pow(10,2)+c[k]*pow(10,1)+d[l];
        power=pow(a[i],exp)+pow(b[j],exp)+pow(c[k],exp)+pow(d[l],exp);
        if(number==power)
            {digits[w]=number;w++;}
        }
        int terminal_w=w;

My mom number 2. I still don't know how to make sense of this, is this narcissistic abuse? (TW just in case)

Ok, so I wrote here before and I mentioned about having my bio mom as more of an emotionally unavailable type of person my entire childhood. So what did I do as a kid? Well I went and found my friends mom who I started to really look up to. So this is what I've been battling inside my mind for a little bit. I was always the one who was blamed when something happened to my "friend". Always, I didn't even have to be near her to get blamed. I was made to be my friends makeup mannequin "so that she could learn early on". I would have to watch over and clean after her little sister and I wasn't allowed to sit in certain spots of their house? And I spent a lot of time at their house, like a lot. Once my friend even framed me as the school bully and because she was and is seen as an angel nobody believed me about what happened. Like nobody, except for my father and the few others she framed. But my dad couldn't protect me, because my bio mom didn't. Anyway, later on my friend convinces me that in order for me to be liked and not bullied I'll have to give her the power to choose what I wear and when. At the same time her mom usually liked to sit us down so that her daughter could have something I usually really liked, like a glass of milk, say I drink too much and make me watch as her daughter drank milk? Once they asked me to join them at their cabin so that I could pick wild raspberries for myself (I was 12), once I'd picked them, again her mom would tell me I'd had enough and fed all of the raspberries I picked to her bio daughter in front of me, while baby talking her. Then at the same trip even her younger sibling started to sing about how fat I was and everybody laughed. If I started a new hobby or something my mom2 would usually laugh it off as stupid or on few occasions she'd copy it for her own daughter. Like if I was dancing for example, her daughter and mom2 started telling how my friend was an excellent dancer? There's a lot more, but I'm getting dizzy just thinking about it. I was so desperate for a mother figure I would've taken anybody as a kid. And I always saw her commenting on her biological daughters about how pretty and perfect they were, while my own mom barely even talked to me. No therapist ever really comment on this other than yeah trauma, but that's it. I've been NC with mom2 for 3 years now? And apparently she's been trying her hardest to get me to come back.

I [27m] am conflicted about cutting off all contact with my mom. She is always lying, talking me in to scandalous situations, and being kind of narcissistic every time I see her and it’s getting worse. I don’t like being mean, but I’ve never felt better since I blocked her number.

There’s so much I can say about why my mom bothers me to the point of blocking her. But I’ll focus on the last straw that happened in March this year, just before it all went to complete hell in the US.

I hate that this gets political, but she has been non stop harping about how β€œtrump gives people what they deserve” and that he’s β€œour savior”. As bone chilling as that was, I accepted it. Then a week later, she’s asking everyone in the family for money to buy my brother (who has a job) a new car. Everybody says no because she just married a new rich guy who brags about how much money he has and he’s not pitching in either. This is the set up.

She asked me to give my brother my car (which I’ve had for 11 years) and then β€œbuild up your credit some more since you’re getting a new job soon”. I hung up and haven’t said a word to any one as to why.

I’m sorry if this is a crazy or boring story, and this barely scratches the surface of why I’m mad at my mom. She has become anti-vax, anti-BLM, trump-is-my-savior, and every other far out thing you can imagine. She has changed since she married this new guy, because she definitely didn’t feel this way before. We used to watch the apprentice on tv and laugh at how insane/fake trump WAS THEN!

Idk, I just need to know what people think about me avoiding all contact with my mom, because like I said I’ve never felt better without her.

Darth Morbid's an evil fucking narcissistic cunt and I unblocked her number.

So, I want to start off by emphatically stating how wonderful of a FIL I had. He NEVER made me feel unwelcome, he was ALWAYS there when we needed him, and I loved him like one SHOULD be able to love one's in-laws. Unfortunately, he found out he had cancer a few short months ago, and it took his life quickly. He was put to rest this week.

As most of you guys know, we've been NC with her for a year and a half. Certainly didn't start talking to her because of all this. We told some family members and let the news spread how it will, and she found out today.

What was her first course of action? If you said, "To call and express her condolences to her son for his loss, and offer an ear if he would like to talk about it," you might've mistaken Darth Morbid for an actual human being and not the piece of narcissistic garbage she is.

Nope, instead she left NINE MINUTES of vehement ranting about how DARE he not call her, how COULD he not tell her, and does she know HOW DEEPLY this has hurt her?!?! The only times she says she's sorry for his loss, it's immediately followed by, "but I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU COULD POSSIBLY DO THIS TO ME!"

She also took him to task for "accusing her of hating his father" (which she's literally pulling out of thin air since, as I said, we haven't talked to her in a year and a half). FIL survived cancer once before, when they were still together, so she ranted for awhile about how she "watched him die before" and generally stroking her dick over how much a hero she is.

So... I unblocked her. I'm not going to initiate a call, but if she calls again you damn well know I'm going to-- ahhem-- remind her to leave us the FUCK alone, or we'll be getting a restraining order too. She doesn't manage to piss me off very easily anymore, but this is beyond fucked up. I'm so glad she either hasn't found out about my mother passing, or didn't care enough to bother because I probably would have paid her a visit in person.

I'm not surprised. I knew exactly what was going to happen. At the same time, you can't help but just wonder. How?? How can someone POSSIBLY think it's a good idea to call someone up during one of the worst times in their life and take them to fucking task about how they're not doing anything to make YOU feel better? Ugh. FUCK.

Shortest Script Challenge - Narcissistic number?

A number is Narcissistic if it is the sum of its own digits raised to the power of the number of digits.

Example:

9474 = 9^4 + 4^4 + 7^4 + 4^4 = 6561 + 256 + 2401 + 256 = 9474

Can you determine if a number is narcissistic? If you can, simply output the number, otherwise do nothing.

Consider this your input:

$n = 371

Rules:

  1. Only output the number if it is narcissistic, no other information or errors.
  2. Please try to avoid using any online APIs, websites, etc.
  3. Do not put anything you see or do here into a production script.
  4. Please explode your code so others can read along.
  5. If the script can't be run again without clearing values please state so.

I have the phone number of my phone therapist, but my Nmom gave it to me and she also talked with her(the councillor) so I'm afraid the therapist won't believe me when I say that my parents are narcissists. Should I go for it and text her?

So in December 23th I straight up had a breakdown. That night I cried for almost 6 hours, while shaking and having problems breathing. It was pretty hard for my Nparents not to notice, and they kept coming at me although I told them I needed to be alone(physically, I was no where near able to deal with anyone but my pets) and they didn't want to listen. Instead, my Ndad hit me because I was being disrespectful bcs i kept telling him to leave, and my Nmom told me that at my age(15F) I have no reason to even be sad, and started talking about how hard her life was instead.

The next day my Nmom called the school counselor, and my parents told me about that with the phrase "now we'll see exactly how insane you are". They told me to contact the councillor the next day, if I wanted to.

I didn't, I wasn't ready, especially because of the context for which they called. I haven't heard the conversation, I was asleep at that time, but I'm sure my Nmom seemed very nice and lovely, so now I have no idea if the therapist will believe me.

She would also want to face time, probably, or at least phone call, and I'm not comfortable with either of them.

There's no other way I can get therapy, should I go for it? I've been told before multiple times that "parents are always trying their best" and I "should be more patient and forgiving". I'm just afraid I'll get the same now.

I'm wondering if the world wars had an effect on the number of narcissists around us?

I was recently reading into how narcissists have some sort of a genetical tendency and if that's met with horrible experiences in childhood, that these tendencies become more prominent. So i got wondering, with my mom, born in '63, my maternal grandparents born in the 1920s and my paternal grandparents in the early 1930s (in Germany funny enough) if their parent's emotional absence (maybe for ptsd reasons because war and rebuilding?), maybe that's why i have so many narcissists and sociopaths in my family on both sides? Does anyone have information about that? Could the wars still be prominent, even though our parents might have never experienced them, but are post-war emotional neglect survivors?

This is not to be an excuse for any narcissist's or sociopath's stupid behaviour, just to be clear.

I just went low contact and don't want to ask my parents for their childhoods, because they'll just tell lies and exaggerate anyway. So maybe someone has more experience/ knowledge? I just try to understand what went wrong in my family.

Thanks for your help :)

Why doesn't the private industry receive more hate in this country?

The private industry does so much shit in SA. Whether is be price fixing, or just general terrible service delivery (similar to that of gov at times). They also always try to find loop holes out of their terms and conditions or just blatantly ignore them.

Alot of these companies are impossible to get in contact with, often sending multiple emails, whatsaps and phone calls to get a hold of them. Once you get hold of them you quite often have a terrible time with the process of engaging with them.

Ive been having uphill with my cell service provider (vodacom) and someone said to me change to mtn. I was mtn before and it made me sit there and think about the terrible experiences I had with mtn. Then I started thinking of all the private companies I've had terrible experiences with. Nissan afters ales suck, Subaru after sales sucks, electronics companies, shopping centre's like checkers makro, internet providers whether it's rain, vox, webafrika alll suuuuck, insurance services suuuuck (once my car was shot, while parked on the side of the road, in a police drive by while chasing a criminal. When the insurance company came to evaluate it to give the go ahead to repairs the first thing the guy did was feel my tyre thread. I asked him why, he said because if you thread was worn we wouldn't have paid out. I was like so a parked car getting shot you won't pay out because of worn tyres like that's got anything to do with what happened) etc etc have had bad experiences with.

It just made me sit and think why dont we complain more about them. Everyone screaming about the privatization of everything as the solution. Why do we think the private sector in its current state would not give us a headache.

My Nmom is adamant about talking on the phone everyday! Says every child has to do that with their parent.

The phone calls last over an hour everyday. They are always about her and topics she’s interested in. I mostly β€œmhm” and β€œwow” the whole time. These phone calls give me a ton of anxiety and it’s hard for me to focus on my life outside of them because if I miss ONE DAY she calls me fake and that I don’t love her.

I’ve tried explaining to her that that’s not the case and that I don’t know anyone my age (30) speaking to their parents EVERYDAY. She didn’t like that at all. Tons of guilt trips. And it’s gotten progressively worse because she’s isolated herself from the whole family and has no friends nor any interest in making friends. I am the only person that will have anything to do with her. She takes no blame for that situation either.

When my aunt asked her what to get me for my birthday, she didn’t know a thing I’m interested in. hmph. I am mostly reserved, since I don’t want to be judged or her telling the whole narcissistic family about my life.

Virtual hug to everyone here. I sometimes feel like I am completely alone in this.

UPDATE: Just while writing this, I found out she told the family private info that I didn’t want anyone knowing. Not the first time. I sent a few heated texts and she called me and was furious. Told me she never wants to hear from me again (guilt trip tactic). I hung up on her. Just blocked her number. I’m frazzled.

Parents forced Christmas money into my bank account.

I went no contact with them months ago. They are trying everything to blame my girlfriend for pointing out their abusive behaviors. They have done everything they can to break no contact so I have even changed phone numbers. I came back from an on-site job yesterday and at my desk was their Christmas card. They had sent it to my work for some reason. In it was a receipt for a deposit to my savings. I thought I had made it so they couldn’t touch my account, but I think anyone can just deposit to it if they know the account info. I’m going to change banks in the future. The last time they sent an unwanted gift, the used it as an excuse to throw a fit. We were trapped either way. Either send it back and have them throw a fit, thank them and break no contact, or do nothing and they would also throw a fit. I can’t reject this like a check. I’m just sure they’ll do something in the next few days. They live 2 and a half hours away, so I think a visit is at least out of the question.

Edit: I just wanted to say that these behaviors were pointed out to me for years before by friends, I just never took them seriously until we were able to prove they’ve been gaslighting me.

I have the phone number of my phone therapist, but my Nmom gave it to me and she also talked with her(the councillor) so I'm afraid the therapist won't believe me when I say that my parents are narcissists. Should I go for it and text her?

So in December 23th I straight up had a breakdown. That night I cried for almost 6 hours, while shaking and having problems breathing. It was pretty hard for my Nparents not to notice, and they kept coming at me although I told them I needed to be alone(physically, I was no where near able to deal with anyone but my pets) and they didn't want to listen. Instead, my Ndad hit me because I was being disrespectful bcs i kept telling him to leave, and my Nmom told me that at my age(15F) I have no reason to even be sad, and started talking about how hard her life was instead.

The next day my Nmom called the school counselor, and my parents told me about that with the phrase "now we'll see exactly how insane you are". They told me to contact the councillor the next day, if I wanted to.

I didn't, I wasn't ready, especially because of the context for which they called. I haven't heard the conversation, I was asleep at that time, but I'm sure my Nmom seemed very nice and lovely, so now I have no idea if the therapist will believe me.

She would also want to face time, probably, or at least phone call, and I'm not comfortable with either of them.

There's no other way I can get therapy, should I go for it? I've been told before multiple times that "parents are always trying their best" and I "should be more patient and forgiving". I'm just afraid I'll get the same now.
