Today my cat died, and things got really bad afterward
I had a cat that I loved so much and took care of in our yard. My brother accidentally hit him with his car, and he died. He was my favorite cat, so I was already extremely upset.
Then my brother started making jokes about it and describing what happened to my cat. I couldn’t handle it anymore, so I got angry and said some things I shouldn’t have.
My mom was right there, but instead of trying to calm me down, she became physical with me. She knocked me to the floor and pulled my hair. I ended up with bruises, and my neck has been hurting since it happened.
Then my brother came over and said, “You’re not my sister anymore.” Honestly, that didn’t hurt me as much as it probably would have before. He crossed serious boundaries with me in the past( sexual harassment )including inappropriate behavior toward me, and I’ve already reached my limit with him.
I’m just exhausted. I lost my favorite cat today, my brother was making fun of me while I was grieving, and then my mom became physical with me because I got upset. I don’t even know what I’m supposed to feel right now.
