    Understanding the nature of the problem ... (being practical but not callous or abusive) ... narcissists are quite easy to handle as long as they think they're in control and they think they're getting what they want...don't argue with them, be assertive when required and if you have to say something they aren't going to like - back it up with a compliment...detach emotionally as much as possible from the negatives in the situation, stay focused on the positives and work out some way to give yourself physical breathing space from them (maybe a hobby) if you are around them a lot... and remember to let whatever you do always be guided by the fact that it is your Mother

    Don't go into rooms with mirrors. If she's really that bad, she won't be in any room without them.

    They like attention, give her alight slap on the butt and say, "yum."

    I think that should keep her at bay for a while.

    First, you need to get born... then cut the cord... get off the teat and onto a juicebox.... and then start screening your calls.

    I have no experience with that. I have known narcissistic mothers, but mine was not one of them; she was the farthest thing from it. I consider myself very fortunate to have been born to my parents. Both of them have passed, and I miss them.
