So, I've joined a campaign as an Aberrant Sorc, and the DM has shared the relevant books with me. However, I don't seem to be able to create a character outside of that campaign with anything but the core races and subclasses etc.
I also can't select any Sorc subclass apart from Draconic Bloodline to use as a base for a home brew, so I can't swap out psionic spells.
So how do I get around the "Can't swap out psionic spells" issue?
For that you would need to homebrew a version of the subclass for yourself that has that functionality. DDB isn’t permitted to take liberties with the official content, but you are as a homebrewer. Here’s a “how to” video made by another user:
The problem I'm getting is I can't select any other subclass but draconic bloodline.
I presume you mean for homebrewing? You have to own the subclass yourself to make a homebrew copy. You can purchase just the subclass. You don’t have to purchase the whole book.

Any suggestions?
Content sharing only works for characters in the campaign where content is being shared. So what you are experiencing is by design.
