Music Helps Me

@mattrix169 I wonder if your brother is doing that on purpose, using phrases he knows will trigger you? The challenge for you then becomes to be mightier than that, to learn to not trigger on certain words or phrases. I am certainly not saying that would be an easy thing to learn! And if he figures out that you are no longer responding or reacting to certain phrases, then he may stop them. Do you think this is worth a try? It takes a lot of strength in yourself, and conscious listening, to not automatically react in a negative way. It certainly is a challenge to take on, and if you're ready to, then go for it! We're standing right here to support you.

Your brother is completely out of line in goading you. There are many of us here who have been a victim of the stigma of mental illness. It's really hard to deal with such people. And stigma and intolerance and inequality are all around us.

Would it be possible for your brother to go with you to a psychiatrist or therapist who could help your brother understand that it's very real?

It seems to me that your brother should find a new place to live. You're in a toxic environment as long as he's with you, and he's setting you up for some prison time. Can the two of you split up?
