Hi
I really need some advice. I really appreciate you all and this beautiful community. My son and DIL are narcissists (both diagnosed and they both find it funny). They have a problem with me for some reason. I am a widow and live by myself. I raised my kids alone. They have two boys that they never let me see. I haven’t seen them in months and I am desperate to. My grandkids bring me so much joy and I have been so down about it. Every time we make plans they cancel or say I can’t come. They make plans with my other kids and when my other kids tell them I’m coming they don’t turn up. I don’t know what to do. I am having issues with depression and anxiety and this is really putting me over the edge. I feel like I’m always walking on eggshells. Nothing I ever say or do to them is right. How can I approach them? Every time I ask for visits they tell me it’s my fault I’m not available at times that suit them or that they are having family time and I’m not invited.
