“I want to be calmer’ seems an impossible request when dealing with narcissists who are fueled with hate, bitterness, and so much negativity that stored up so long, like 40 years this can’t be a full life of peace for themselves and others, they just manage to drive so many to the craziness as their ring of terror continue…people can be hell to each other….
