Hello
I am a middle aged woman who is youthful both in looks and attitude.
I have siblings who often dismiss me, put me down, are nice when they feel like it.
I have often walked out of family get togethers & it’s made me look neurotic in front of other family members & mutual friends, certain friends that I had always take their side.
This has impacted my relationships with other people, I have lost trust in people, I have severe trust issues stemming back to being hurt in relationships & former friends.
when I am away from & with other people, I am confident, happy & comfortable within myself but when I am around 2 of my siblings they make me feel like I am boring. I am a reserved person but once I get to know people I am quite open.
I have tried talking to them, things go well for awhile but then their attitude towards me starts all over again. I have always been a good sister towards them, I don’t understand it at all. I get upset and emotional when they start with their put downs. I have a different personality to them which they seem to put me down about. I am at a loss.
i have been told that I am too sensitive but their attitude is beyond a joke.
I don’t know what to do.

Hello Smallwolf
Thank you for your support.
it has been hard, I am going to see a psychologist again, I feel it’s time to get professional support again, for awhile I just felt like giving up. It hurt me when my sister posted photos of herself with mutual friends (well they were friends but my sister turned them against me, they also witnessed us arguing a few times so that didn’t help) at an outing. I have a small circle of friends but I don’t like to bother them with my issues.
it’s become hard putting on a positive face, yesterday I broke down in tears.
Thank you
