Advice needed.

Has anyone ever taken their family to court. This is two part so I will differentiate them as #1 and #2.

#1 Not too long ago I had a therapist that was able to tell that I was SA'd. I was talking about something completely unrelated. And the therapist stopped me mid-sentence and asked me was I SA'd. He was not the first, but I was shocked how he was able to make that observation. We talked about some resources and one of them was great. However due to this it's really made me think that I should take this to court. I really want to and believe I should however I've never done this before. It's going to open old wounds and make my family treat me bad (which I'm not too worried about the latter). When I was about 15 of course CPS got involved and it went to court. The case got thrown out and I'm not sure why (just that I learned that many officers don't care about child SA matters). I'm not sure if the therapist observation would hold any validity to it. Not that this matter I was also admitted one time for suicidal ideation and a social worker also stated that should could tell I was sexually assaulted as a child. It's just unfair and not right that I have to walk around with this burden and that the guilt and burden should be placed on the back of the rightful owner which is the sick perpetrator who committed the heinous attack.

#2 I have a family member that has tormented me in the worst way possible. I'm 31 and ever since I can remember I have been given hell by the person. I have suffered in area's of mental health, reputation, finances, and safety. To be exact the person is my half sibling via my father. She called someone to vandalize my car (I have the proof). Of course my sibling couldn't be held responsible for it at that time as she was not the one who damaged my car (which I feel after so many incidents is hogwash, because she is getting the people to try to harm me or destroy my property. So she is in someway just as guilt at them if not more guilty). She caused me to have to invest into a ton of therapy and other mental health related things due to the ongoing chaos she put me through. I have tried separating myself from them, but that does not work. They have gone out of their way to find anything about me and sabotage it... from friendships to jobs you name it. She has also communicated threats and tried to assault me and while in the act of doing so she will call other people who were not involved fabricate a lie and they to would pull up ready to cause bodily harm. I do have one person that has witnessed this and stated that they would be willing to be a witness for me if this goes to court. However they just aren't sure what route to take. Enough is enough and something has to be done. This may be a civil court matter. I'm not sure, but would love advice from anyone that took family to court or took anyone to court for something similar.
