As well as hearing from parents having to deal with a narcissistic ex, I also hear from other counselors. Sometime after accepting a referral of a child or teen caught in the middle, showing signs of distress, the narcissistic parent then tries to put the counselor in the middle. It’s almost always the same. The narcissistic parent is seeking to know about the content of discussion between the child/teen and the counselor.

How can we raise mental health awareness? The answer isn’t as easy as it seems. Many people agree that it’s important to raise mental health awareness, but they don’t always know how or when is the best time. In my opinion, there’s no bad time to raise mental health awareness. It’s always a good time to talk about mental health, and you never know who it can benefit.

He went to counseling just as she wanted. He had to address his anger. He learned to take a break if conflict arose. With that break he would compose himself, figure out his feelings and then return to discuss matters more reasonably. Sometimes it took a matter of minutes, other times a few hours, on occasion a day or two. No matter how short or long a break he took to figure himself out and no matter how reasonable he returned, she was triggered by his not staying fully engaged and needing this

I am frequently asked what causes a person to become a narcissist. Truth is, like all things human, it’s multifaceted. The answer lies somewhere on a spectrum of biology and one’s growing up experiences as well as the interplay between them. Apart from biology/genetics, there are multiple theories from a psychosocial perspective. Those theories will range from behavioral, to psychodynamic to social learning theory.

People with severe mental illnesses die up to 10 years earlier than the general population. Their lives are scandalously cut short due to the tragedy of suicide as well as a disproportionately high rate of physical health problems with low detection. Too many people are gone too soon. Now, a new paper published in the Lancet Psychiatry calls for action on a global scale to put an end to the growing mortality rates of people with mental illness and distress.

Practice self-care regularly, such as getting enough sleep, exercising and eating well-balanced meals. Journaling is a great place to unpack your thoughts and feelings during this time as well. Prioritize your mental health by taking breaks when needed and engaging in activities that bring you joy. The healthy activities that you identify may be good coping skills to use consistently.

In the previous blog post, I addressed the importance of using the present-day conflicts that couples bring to therapy to access historical wounds, traumas and losses. But often couples don’t want to talk about their pasts. They have usually come to deal with current conflicts–not their family histories. Therapists in my consultation groups often ask, “What do I do when I try to get into family history and they just won’t go there?
