I love the following line from "The Season's Upon Us"-Dropkick Murphys

"Some families are messed up while others are fine
If you think yours is crazy, well you should see mine"

I'm feeling like I come from a dysfunctional family. Both my mom and dad are long gone. So it leaves my sister and two brothers. My sister and I get along the most between the four of us. But lately I feel like it's slipping away. Between the four of us, we are not communicating very well. It seems like we are all doing our own things.

Since my mother passed away seven years ago, none of us have been together with each other. And it seems like it's going to be a good long time before we will get together, if ever.

I am the youngest in my family. I have a brother that lives three hours away from me. We've emailed each other, but it stops because all he wants to do is fight and make insulting remarks. I have an older brother that wants nothing to do with any of us (I think that he's the smart one). And then there's my sister. We get along the best, but that's been going downhill. She seems very bogged down. Lately, she seems to be getting into psychoanalysis with me about what's wrong with me. I don't find it very complimenting. And she seems to say it in a stern way.

I'm so sorry that you are going through this. One thinks that family should be the safe place but that is often not the case. I am experiencing so abandonment issues with my adopted family right now so I can relate.
Do you have friends? They can sometimes be more family than real family. If not try to lose yourself in activities that bring you in contact with positive people. If you join in groups that help others (people or animals) maybe you can form connections that are a positive influence in your life.
It's funny--- people who have family have problems with family and people without family want family. I guess what we want is something that really exists on in our imagination.
I hope things get straightened out soon.
