I joined this site because of DV with a N/P. I am in regular Therapy sessions at least once or twice a week. During some of my recent sessions we talked about my family and the dynamics of the family structure. My Mother has was verbally and physically abusive to Sisters and I growing up, she is controlling and manipulating. My Therapist has had years of experience dealing with Naracissist. All of my sisters including myself have all been involved with Men that have had some kind of Addiction.

She has told me that my Mother displays these tendencies. All of my sisters including my self have low self esteem. We change, she has gone to therapy a couple of times with my Father before and left when the Therapist said anything that sounded like she was at fault or didn't like what the Therapist advised.

I guess my question is is since she is a Naracissist is it genetic? I have been in Therapy a couple of times in my life dealing with the family issues and have found the best way to deal with it is to live a distance away and keep most of the contact through phone. I still get the guilt trips...etc.
I am now facing the fact that my Father is in the hospital and I have changed my phone # because I am trying to deal with the DV. The family is pressuring me into going back for 'Dad's' sake and to put my problems aside. I love my Father and am torn because I don't want anything to happen to him, yet I feel I would be going into a lion's nest again.

I don't know what to do.
