My brother is exhausting.
ever since my brother started puberty, hes become even more violent and gross. He touches me inappropriately, keeps everybody awake, flashes me, kicks, hits and threatens the whole household with knives and lighters. i love him i really do but im so tired. I know im older than him and everything but im truly terrified of him. I dont know what to do anymore. My parents have so much to deal with when it comes to him. They’re exhausted, im exhausted. they keep defending him because they have “bigger battles”. It feels like they just dont want to put the energy in to stop him from literally assaulting me. I have to calm my mom from panic attacks. I have to force the door closed while he tries to stab me from the little opening under the door. Im tired and sad and frustrated with my whole situation. Everything feels so incredibly unfair. Im counting down the days until im done with school and can move out.
