I Blame Myself

I blame myself for everything. It's a bad habit from childhood when I absorbed all family conflict and was blamed for everything. I was the scapegoat unknowingly recruited to fulfill a pathological narcissist in an unhappy marriage.

What am I getting out of it now? My husband says if you cast yourself as the scapegoat you get to have a family. If you take on the new role of strong independent woman you no longer have your family. He is right.
