You appear confident to others but secretly feel insecure and anxious inside. You hold back on sharing your ideas or going for opportunities because you worry you’re not good enough.

Co-parenting with a narcissist is relentless. You can’t change them, but you can change how you respond—and that makes all the difference.

They may sabotage your parenting, manipulate your kids, or fight for custody despite lacking true commitment.
