I take care of my dad, 71 yrs old. He retired during covid, parents divorced and he declined a lot medically & cognitively. He’s been so awful to me for like a year. He started going on fb like 24/7 watching like armchair therapy buzz words reels.(1)

So recently if I have tried to express any thoughts, feelings/emotions, opinions that aren’t aligned with his he will lose his shit and call me a “narcissist” I’m a doctorate student for psych and social work and I work with disabled adults, and I also worked at a state funded psychiatric hospital. I know narcissistic personality disorder well lol. I asked what he thinks it means he says I am selfish and I only care about myself, when I’m literally his caregiver…

We had an early thanksgiving with my dads side of the fam because of some illnesses going on and and he was yelling and screaming at me all morning calling me a narcissist- when all I did was ask what was our plan for the day. I told him I wasn’t going if he’s treating me this way. I didn’t go to dinner with my family for the first time ever. I feel terrible. My cousin posted a picture with my aunt and uncles and my cousins and my dad… I feel like I abandoned him 😭 AITA
