Hi! I’m new…and a little lost.

[Chloe]

Hi. I just found this community and I'm so thankful. I have a lot to learn with my  own complex ptsd and my sister with her personality disorder (NPD).  I'm lonely, having isolated myself, even before the pandemic. I feel rather lost at the moment, issues with therapist. She is going through something of her own right now and has brought her feelings come into therapy and she has been gaslighting me. Not sure what to do. I've been seeing her for years, but it's only been recently that my CPTSD symptoms have been bad.  😢The stress from dealing with the relationship with my therapist isn't helping.
I'm glad to have found this place.

You are very welcome!  As a start please read the Toolbox- you might find some useful strategies there for the times when you have to deal with your sister.
As for the therapist, I have found that some times I had outgrown the therapist I was with. There had been a time when they were helping me heal and then no progress. I considered that a sign to look for another approach. In your situation it might be beneficial to look for a therapist specializing in trauma or someone with experience in another approach than the one you have been using for now.
See you around on the boards!
