"In a narcissistic family system, you are as good as they think you are bad." This bit of wisdom is from Jerry Wise, a licensed mental health counselor. In other words, such a family system works against the differentiation of its members, but growing into one's individuality is a part of maturity. If you are becoming your own person, rather than conforming to the whole in an unhealthy and rigid sense, you will be considered "bad." And that is good! #narcissism #familysystems
