Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I recently discovered that my mother who is deceased for about a year & a half had narcissistic personality disorder. In some ways this is a relief as I now know that I wasn t going mad all this time. I am not angry with her as I realise something in her life led to her developing this disorder. I am frustrated however that my siblings are still acting out the roles that they did while she was alive. I understand that they did this as they felt they had no other option while my mother was alive . However,I am still being treated like a scapegoat. Is there anything I can do to make them realise what they are doing or is my only choice to distance myself from them?
In that case, you should take help of a psychologist. Psychologist will help you to realize them about their bad behavior towards you. You all should be in family therapy and that need time. It would not happen in a day or months, but gradually with help of psychologist, you can tell them your thoughts to them. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
