I tried opening up to my brother about my own problems a little bit

He just said "oh, that's okay"

Well... at least he's able to open up to me.

Maybe in the future he will be able to help me too

For whatever reason some people do not know how to respond to another's issues. They shut down completely.

@robbie2499 yeah I think it made him uncomfortable

robbie2499 · 61-69, F

@caccoon That would be my guess as well.

I hope so

@KiwiDan I hope so too. 💙 And I have found a lot of healing in talking to him about his own problems too, so I won't be upset if he never does. 💙

@caccoon I'm so glad you've found healing. You deserve it.

caccoon · 36-40

@KiwiDan everyone does! It's a struggle though and a neverending process I imagine

He’s not there yet. Little steps.

caccoon · 36-40

@Straylight you're right, I need to be patient

We came from such an uncommunicative hoursehold, he's just doing what he knows
