I have to admit that I won’t be on good terms again with my sibling for a long while. They did some very distressing things this year that were a large contributor to my burnout. Never apologized for it, never tried to fix anything. I’m done with that tbh
I think I’ve talked with my sibling twice in the last three years. They’ve gone off the deep end with right wing stuff and I just don’t have the capacity for it. It’s difficult to cut ties but sometimes it’s the way to go
We can’t pick our family, but we can pick who is in our lives.
Things did not improve with my family until I showed them the door. They still suck, but they definitely reigned it in once they realized they were optional in my life.
Set boundaries, stick to them. Even if the only way to be happy is to never see them again. This is their problem, not yours.
Haven’t spoken to my sibling in a few years either. He was at a sensitive point in his life during covid, and I tried to help him through force (note: you cannot force someone to seek help). My biggest regret. I live in the hope that he’ll one day come back to us.

I’m sorry. You for sure deserve better. You should be proud for wanting to set boundaries. Pretty big way to show oneself some love.
