Times when you have felt genuinely sorry for Chris

Looking at pictures of Chris as a little kid. Smiling like a normal kid, at Christmas, with a non-monstrous Barb or Bob. Back then he was just an innocent kid, still with plenty of potential, could have lived a normal and happy life. Chris is 100% responsible for his decisions, but he was still made into what he is by years of neglect (and in some cases, active abuse) by people who should have been caring for him.

Going from a picture of kid-Chris with a cardboard crown on his head to the insane hagraven that he is today is legitimately depressing.

Currently listening to the Father Call, and I do feel bad for Chris, slightly. Most of the things Matt said should have motivated Chris, but he just kept on making excuses and exaggerated on how hard his life was.
 
Not long after I heard about him. Had a friend lead me to hi and then saw his sad video about the medallion being destroyed. I felt he needed a big brother or father figure and tried to reach out. Well you know that didn't lead anywhere. YOU ARE NOT MY ADOPTED SON.

Not one occasion exactly but whenever something leaks out about how totally shitty Barb is. Like how she threatens and manipulates Chris, financially abuses him, spent all the savings Bob intended for Chris to have, made him sleep with her, is pretty well the reason none of Chris' family members will have anything to do with him (well Cole for sure, but didn't Bob's kids stop talking to him because of her?)... I think Bob was okay but Barb is a piece of shit and I feel bad for Chris because unlike Cole he's too handicapped to just leave.
 
Honestly, I think the real core of Chris’s life is extremely sad, so I’ve felt sorry for him plenty of times. Of course, his repellent behavior prevents me from feeling that way for long. But I think the thing that I feel most sorry about is how he’ll never be able to develop new friendships without worrying about if it’s actually a troll. When I first signed up in 2013, one of the things everybody mocked him for was his paranoia and his belief that everyone was a troll and that everything bad in his life is part of some grand trolling scheme. And though that’s still pretty grandiose, can you really tell him he shouldn’t feel that way? Someone took advantage of his house fire to steal his fucking trash so he could post about it here and was widely praised for doing so at the time.
 
Gotta be 'pickle man tricked me again'.

Regarding his entire life? Barb spitting him out of her is what I'm most sorry about.
I'm close friends with a woman who has a narcissistic mother, I mentioned her in the Venus thread a while back. This is a beautiful, attractive, model material woman at thirty years old - highly talented, great work ethic, fiercely headstrong with so much potential. She is trapped in an open prison. Seeing what her mother has done to her is utterly beyond belief. Children of narcissistic mothers suffer so horribly, worse than children of absent or shitty fathers. And the worst? When Dad is Mom's enabler.

I also have another close friend who got out eventually, a la Cole. She met a friend on the internet, she just ran and ran to live with them for a while until she sorted her shit out, and never looked back. Not many kids of narcs get out, golden child or scapegoat, and if they do, like Cole, they have to cut it all out - all of it. Chris is a nightmare, but when Barb finally fucking dies, I think Cole will reach out to Chris in some way. I don't believe he particularly loves Chris, but they're really the closest family each other have which says a lot. The poison will be gone, and only his victim of a little brother will remain. He is not Chris's saviour. Chris is too far gone now as we know. But he's something. Something tangible. Unlike the world he currently resides in.

Children of narcissists are so messed up and there is no diagnosis or pill that fixes the wide array of problems that arise from that kind of abuse. Eating disorders, dissociative disorders, fibromyalia, migraines etc. With a different mother, I truly believe Chris would be way better off now than he is.

She wants her little Chris close for a reason. He's her supply. She is only still breathing the air she simply does not deserve because of Chris. Narcs have no soul so they drain the souls of others.
 
When bluespike made him shove his medallion up his ass. That was some next level fucked up shit, and precisely why actively trolling people should be strongly discouraged. It just isn’t fun or funny for a lolcow to do crazy shit when someone outside of their life puts them up to it.

That's what happens when you let a 13 year old run things.
