I found out about my narcissistic mother and issues from complex PTSD recently. I am in therapy, but a lot of the physiological implications are a bit over my head. I've had chronic pain (finally diagnosed as nerve pain), but even with medication certain days I get no relief. Can anyone she'd some light? A few years ago I lost 30 pounds without trying, and ended up bouncing around 30 Drs. The only diagnosis was fructose malabsorption- and highly sensitive chronic nerve pain. I have nerve medicine, but it rarely works. Could it be tied in to the PTSD?
Thank you,
Nina

A lot of stuff is tied to stress and reactions to stress, from experience, though older members will probably have a bit more experience on this specific matter :hug: Hopefully this place helps

Thank you both for your responses. I am just starting to open up to my sister and dad with what I'm learning, but since I'm the youngest and the scapegoat, my role in the family was always, "the one to be dismissed." I'm suggesting to my older sister that she research, and tell me what she thinks, rather than just throwing it all on the table. So far, she hasn't been dismissive, she said, "I may be on to something with the narcissism thing", and is now getting sick - like I was years before. I'm gently trying to get her to search out answers that include body, mind and spirit in regards to childhood trauma. I hope I'm doing the right thing....

@Nina999 Welcome! :)

Thank you. Has anyone found any help going to homeopathic doctors? I am wondering if they might be the only ones considering trauma as it relates to health....

Well, there are psychiatrists and psychologists that specialize in psychosomatic symptoms. I was to one such. Really helpful :) @Nina999
