Hi everyone!

I know my name is misspelled but both those words are from my family matrix and man I dont want them to know.

I am the youngest of 2 to a very dysfunctional mother, I am the scapegoat. I started getting help for all this in August of 2022. I have gone low-contact with my family.

I think my brother has NPD these days, which breaks my heart. He was my best friend, he would talk about the abuse we endured-- and then he was emotionally and verbally abusing me :/

Pretty raw about it all

Welcome! You are amongst people who share your experiences. We understand.
As a start- read around the Toolbox. You might find some strategies there suitable for your situation. Low contact is a way to protect ourselves and avoid further abuse. And therapy can help to heal the wounds previous abuse inflicted.
I am glad you found us. See you around on the boards.
