Just trying to give myself some comfort and reassurance around my brother's behavior - that whole "am I the asshole" problem - I'm really not. Nobody is perfect, but I don't punish or control others, or try to tear them down. Josh and I work hard to lift each other up, we have a healthy dynamic, I know what that looks like and feels like and I have done my very best to treat my brother well, only to continue to tolerate emotional abuse.

I've been a bit unactive in journaling but trying to be better about that. It's awful trying to manage a relationship with someone you love and they're not treating you fairly.

I sincerely hate that for you but do hope you're able to remember that the way people treat you is not a reflection of your worth or value. I have to tell myself this FREQUENTLY.

Hope things are improving!
