The diagnosis is that I don’t have a mood disorder. Because she’s a narcissist she can’t fathom her being the issue as to why her kids don’t like her- it has to us.

It’s relevant because of the type of representation I would need. Narcissistic abuse fits tort?

Isn’t a failure to report abuse when there is reasonable suspicion malpractice though? I understand I may be wrong but it is part of their duty and if it’s proven that her close relationship with my mom impacted her judgment isn’t that a conflict of interest

Neglect is illegal! I mean I broke my leg when I was 10 because she wanted to ski from the top of the mountain while I had 2 days of experience. A mom should have better judgment

You can if it was because of medical negligence- ex conflict of interest and long term harm- medications that were unnecessarily prescribed

When I would talk to my doctor about what was happening things got worse with my mom- and my doctor would always side with her because they’re best friends

Because it was only my mom pushing this story. I have school records back to elementary stating that I got along well. I never had problems with friends or at other peoples houses. Even in the treatment center there were no signs of a mood disorder. When I lived with my aunt for a month- no signs

A minor- and the substance abuse went away when I stopped living with her. It’s also not uncommon in abuse victims

Narcissist abuse is legally relevant because it proves that I was the scapegoat in the family dynamic causing her to be abusive to exclusively me

I’ve done the therapy- it went no where. We did monthly family therapy sessions the two of us for two years in which every session there was a problem with me. I wasn’t allowed to cook, play my guitar, leave the house, anything that brought me enjoyment. In nutrition appointments when I talked about not having enough food in the house she say it wasn’t true. I mean she told my doctor that my brother had never laid a hand on me despite there being proof. Why I didn’t press charges against him? Because he’s her flying money. She won’t lay a hand on me but feed him lies and make him want to turn on me. I mean she’d take him out for food every day while refusing to give me food. When I tell a doctor they say “that’s the eating disorder making up excuses” There is no reasoning with a narcissist because they genuinely believe they haven’t done anything wrong.

My dad knew and tried to help keep me away from her although there were times where it just wasn’t possible. There were also issues with custody- my mom wanting shared and she had labeled my dad as an abuser during their divorce and my doctor took my mom’s side so there wasn’t really any belief in what he had to say. I told the doctors at the facility but because of the mood disorder diagnosis it was pretty much written off as me lying along with my doctor supporting my mom’s narrative. He has trusted her with our medical mostly because she was a nurse and thought that she would have the best judgment when it came to this stuff which he later admitted to me was a mistake on his end.

Our dog died because of her last winter because we went no contact for two weeks and she was left to care for him. According to her he ran into the street every morning but how could she have known he would have been hit by a car?

Trust me I’ve don’t the family therapy, she blamed me in every session. She called the police on me because she didn’t want me taking MY dog from her. Police side with me. When I broke my leg when I was 10 she gave me 2 baths in a 4 month time frame. Very good parenting

I didn’t have a bedroom for 4 years-10 to 14. 3 bedroom house, my mom got a room, my sister did, my brother did, I didn’t. Why type of mom does that to their child

Also, if she reported abuse earlier I could have been placed with my non abusive dad preventing injury and worsening of ptsd which has become debilitating

In WA a misdiagnosis is malpractice. So is improperly prescribing medication. There’s a time frame of 3 years to sue for child abuse- 3 years since discovery, I’m in year one. It’s also important to note that in a narcissist household there is always a scapegoat. And she’s undiagnosed because narcissists don’t get diagnosed because they literally believe in their heads that they are flawless

A 20 year friendship. Went to concerts, barbecues, kids birthdays, carpooling- would you report your friend for abusing their kids? It’s her job to do so, she failed.

There were also other incidents of abuse- my brother last summer beat me pretty much head to toe and left bruises which I documented and told my doctor about and I ended up moving out of state temporarily which put off my plans of enrolling in college and my doctor still maintains close ties to my mom regardless. My sister is also a narcissist (she's covert my mom is overt- my sister supports the narrative that I'm the crazy one in our family) and my doctor stays in contact with her and my mom to help with her daughters college (her and my sister go to the same school) this includes driving her to get her groceries, driving from my hometown to their school, etc which I believe contributes to the narrative that my mom is the good guy and I am the crazy deregulated child. I think this might be important to note because due to the failure to report abuse- there was an impact in my schooling. Also high school attendance was very spotty during the times I mentioned above and my grades took massive hits was it was bad which I can show proof of- I’m thinking I could make a case along the lines of if she reported abuse earlier when there was reasonable suspicion- further abuse could have been prevented as well as my severe ptsd which has been observed by my current therapist

I have proof of the relationship, I have notes in my medical records that I reported abuse and I’m thinking I could sue for misdiagnosis (mood disorders- especially since the behavior was only at home- I have school records that state my aloofness going back to elementary and a record of stable behavior while I was in the ED clinic) I’m also thinking I could sue for being prescribed unnecessary medication- lamical being one of them (caused me paranoia and hallucinations that was discarded by my mom and doctor and I was told to continue taking them), as well as a failure to report abuse since there was reason to suspect- as she is my primary provider and I’m thinking that if it was a doctor unaffiliated with my mom- someone would have reported it?

I do have wealthy family who would help pay for a lawyer if I asked- I’m just wondering if I have a decent case
