He is very similar to my brother. I grew up with his vile sarcasm and put downs. I did not have a name. He called me every derogatory name he could think up rather than call me by my name. I was ridiculed and laughed at in the sight of his friends and of our family.

For me cutting him off completely (along with the rest of my family) was the only thing I could do. Going on 15+ years now since being connected to my family and I'm better for it. The anger still remains but has become more bearable.

I think you're doing all you can exept taking his email and creating a filter that deletes them automaticaly. I would take taht step so you're not tempted to read and respond. I think that alone would do you a world of good.

Hope this helps
