Question Passive Aggressive Personality ???

I have heard this term flung around a lot and just recently decided MIL must be in that category. She call DS ON his b'day and discussed all of her medical issues with him, including her upcoming pace maker operation. I believe this was her attempt to get DH to interact with her, via DS. Does this fit passive aggressive???

Read the article:

Count me in. Sounds like a serious problem facing many today.
What can we do to help? We need to offer assistance. Would drawing attention to it make more sense?

Sometimes people don't want the help.

Many that are passive-aggressive also suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder

I know.... It's such a vicious cycle.

You need to just come right out and say it to my face.
Or PM me or whatever you feel is right. I'm just sayin'.

Maybe a hiatus is in order until the manic cycle is over.

You know. I'm really starting to feel paranoid too. gee.

Look what you went and did this time.

Only the truly crazy believe they are sane (and vice versa...) I think you're safe!
But, if the men w/ the white jacket that buttons in the back show up? Run, run as fast as you can!

(Our state mental hospital is located in Warm Springs--and I seriously think Warm Springs sounds more like a spa!)

Safely sane or insane?
I'm going into denial as we speak.
Add that one to the help list also.

We got Hot Springs Spa City here, very therapeutic,
Maybe a shopping spree would help,
