[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I can relate to this. No alcoholism in my family & we're not southern, but I feel excluded and unloved from my family. Always have. I am in my 50's and spent years trying to improve our relationship, but finally gave up and now am quite distant. It is such a relief not dealing with their mindgames and BS anymore. I'm not happy, but I have some peace of mind. But I have a huge hole in my heart. You are not alone. [/quote]

I am sorry about this situation
Is your brother younger than you?

I'm in my 40s and estranged myself after being treated terribly. In lots of therapy I figured out my parents are likely narcissists and have created a huge ego in my sibling. I still occasionallt talk to my sibling but I also tell myself my parents, at an age when they should be reflecting on what's most important in life, have repeatedly chosen material and status-oriented things over their own daughter. In my case, I'm also an adopted child and my brother is not, so I'm not sure if that is part of it.[/quote][/quote]
