Journal Prompts
Journal Prompt #1: How did self-worth get twisted?
How did your narcissistic parent create damage around your self-worth and how you perceive yourself?

Write a list of ten experiences about lost self-worth due to that parent.

Examples
That Christmas when my mother made me stand up in front of the entire extended family while she berated me about why I didn’t get any gifts.

My father would take any achievement I had and one-up me. I gave up on having self-worth because he was the focus.

Journal Prompt #2: Who did they say you are?
Write several paragraphs about your struggle with a healthy sense of self and how the narcissistic parent contributed to a poor sense of self. Who did your parents say you were, either through protection, neglect, or supply?

Example

I’ve always guessed at what I like or who I am. My mother had these twisted ideas, or fantasies, that I was going to become an entrepreneur and live a fabulous life in support of her. Did I want that? What even is that? What I know now is if she had a child who was a rich genius, she could have supply and validation—she could tell her friends she raised an entrepreneur. Of course I don’t know who I am.

Are You Too Much?

Patrick Teahan 2025-08-31 | Dialoguing Prompts:

Question 1) Feeling like a tag along and can’t jump in.
Try reparenting by dialoging on paper with your inner child and ask them,

What are they afraid of if they jump in? What do they think is going to happen?
What does jumping into to conversation take them back to in childhood?
Are they a friend of being socially awkward like your parents.

Then 3 things,
1) validate how off it was to be a kid seeing your parents crazy yet oblivious social awkwardness and
2) hold your parents accountable for wrecking social engagement and that any shame or entitlement belongs to them.
3) remind your inner child that you’re at lunch or having drinks with people you like without those heavy icky religious traps going on and how how you’re different than your family, how the group of people are different.

Question 2 - leaving friendships when they start
The work is going to be around helping your inner child get rid of your mother’s narrative but talking about what’s good enough. So like the last question.

1)What does having friendships take you back to?
2)What is your inner child’s fear - let them speak about it but you already know
3)What are the specific things our mother told us about friendships that we need to kick out of our head?

Three things to do in the dialogue:
Validate the child’s experience growing up - not so much the present
Hold the abusive parents accountable
Help your inner child see how you can be more present and don’t have to be that vigilant about what you say and what you don’t say

To the author, you’re asking really about how to reclaim intimacy, like the last question, not so much about feeling excluded but I really like that you know a part of you does feel excluded. Sometimes inner children want people to chase us but we’ve said goodbye upfront.

Question 3) Am I being too much

Try reparenting by dialoging on paper with your inner child and ask them,

What kind of response did you want from your friend about their boyfriend. What kind of connection were you seeking?
When if feels like people aren’t being real or working on themselves, what does that take us back to?
What happens in our lives when we try to get people to be more real and we might over do it?
What did it feel like to grow up in a family that never brought real issues up?

Try to help your inner child understand that:
The intensity is about trying to get your family to be honest and is now pushing people away
It’s ok to reserve a real connection with a few select people in our lives in small chunks. All the time is maybe too much
Your family set you up to be intense around connection and it would be good to let people open up to your on their own - not because we bring it up

Some things to consider for your inner adult to differentiate between past and present.

Was your family fake about important things that ended up hurting you or others - like an affair?
Was your family fake with other people and that seemed like a betrayal - like social with neighbors but repressed at home.
Was your family fake about being a family when they were messed up adult pretending to family.

If you would like to learn more about inner child reparenting,
I offer a course ("Reparenting The Inner Child") that teaches you how to do it.

How Toxic Mothers Hurt Their Sons for Life

Patrick Teahan 2025-08-24 | The second video in a series of four.
Toxic Mothers and the Damage to Their Sons explores in-depth how emotionally immature or abusive mothers impact their sons long into adulthood.

Recovery Journal Prompts:

Question 1) When I’m triggered by women in general or by my partner (again it doesn’t have to be a female to male only triggering situation) what does the situation take you back to.

Does it take you back to:
· Not being protected or seen?
· Having to navigate weaponized moods - or being powerless?
· Used in some way that feels icky?
· Being thoughtless, oblivious, insensitive

Thought exercises like that can help you regulate in the moment as our inner child is looking at the present through the lens of our past and reacting.
Try to be specific in thinking of events like : when I graduated from my master’s program and my family visited and my mother had a weekend long meltdown and ended up not coming to my ceremony and hitting my sister.
How is the present situation you’re triggered in different? How are you different in terms of having power and or choice?
It helps in the moment to get out of triggers and in childhood trauma work we do have to separate past vs present to regulate and have our inner adult more in place.

Question 2) In your projection, who does the person become to you in those moments?

Try to think about or write about how the person that you might be projecting on – who qualities trigger you.
Like a boss who is female and doesn’t take action on people and you have to make up for their work, can trigger you to be a tragic codependent where they don’t protect.
How are they different (can simply be, you’re not my mother - you’re just and ineffective boss), how are you different? (I’m not trapped and have choice now or can speak up)
We can also project in situations like being at a restaurant and you see an family having to deal with an extremely dramatic and difficult woman and you might feel a focus on wanting to protect that family from their mother.
I’m not saying we shouldn’t have any feelings about a situation like that but what does your inner child want to do?

Question 3) Write out an inventory of women in your entire life who specifically triggered you - from teachers, partners, bosses, strangers in coffee shops – was there a pattern to them?

Did they have similar qualities like using mood as a weapon, some kind of immaturity, aloofness, some kind of irresponsibility, some kind of selfishness or entitlement?

You could do it in columns, person, behavior and how they made you feel: enraged, in trouble, or powerless.

Are there patterns to how your inner child gets affected by women specifically and are you aware of those patterns related to your mother? That’s our unfinished business with an abusive parent while we are trying to navigate the present.

Question 4) Lastly, as a toxic mother’s son, what does your inner child try to get from women in a way that’s coming from unfinished trauma business with your mother.

Does your inner child want to be seen and tries to prove something to women?
Does your inner child want care and validations but trying to get it is coming from a place of trauma? Like wanting them to read your mind.
Does your inner child want to point out someone's manipulative drama or that they are misguided or thoughtless? Do you have an agenda instead of just letting someone be an A hole in the world? Do you fight with women online or look for hypocrisy in their posts/comments?

Does your inner want to be a woman’s total unconditional love source in order to feel complete? It might be a sign that we are looking for a parent and not a partner. We all want a deep love with our partner but a toxic mother clouds that.

If you get stuck, go back and watch the types of mother and the impact on son because the video is about some healing steps.
