I am glad you're doing what you can to look after yourself! I had a aimilar situation with my older brother who we all had to walk on eggshells around and be ready to do whatever he wanted to keep him calm, and it isn't fair and it is really exhausting so I feel ya!

Thank you, it’s really nice and rare to find someone who can sympathize. It’s a really terrible dynamic when everyone KNOWS the behavior is not normal/acceptable, but you’re all much too tired to really fight them on it anymore. Most people don’t really believe me when I talk about my experiences with her, especially from when I was younger. I’m sorry you had to experience that, but again, I appreciate the empathy, and hope that your situation is either already improved or improves soon.
