I've been feeling depressed lately, and my memories of the time my mother abandoned my brother and I have been flooding back. I was telling a close friend about the time my brother and I had panic attacks the same day at school, and found each other in the nurse's office before going home. Not even a minute after I recalled this memory, my brother messaged me on skype asking if I was there and that he had just woken up with a panic attack. I was so shocked. I tried to comfort him and told him I have them too. My relationship with my brother has been broken for years, and he never comes to me with his emotional problems - let alone at this very moment specifically about having a panic attack. Has anyone else experienced a strange sort of synchronization with their sibling who has also suffered from the same trauma as you?

Both me and my little sister were abused by 2 older men. Neither of us knew about the one guy until we were older, but we both knew about our neighbor. Even to this day, we seem to know when one of us needs the other one, because of really horrible nightmares and\or panic attacks...
