Up until about a few years, I had a healthy-ish relationship with my younger sister. We talked on and off and enjoyed each other’s company. She became very harsh and rude once she was in 4th-5th grade, while I was is like 7th. I’m now in highschool and it has only gotten worse. She’s 13 now. Every day she degrades me and calls me names when I’m doing my makeup or simply looking at myself in the mirror. She will call me fat and ugly, knowing that I’m very thin and used to  have an eating disorder and also struggled with self confidence. I thought it was temporary but it always gets worse. In 2016 I attempted suicide and if anything you’d think she’d be very distressed about the thought of losing your only sister, but she didn’t care. She constantly brings up my suicide attempt and jokes about it along with using it to hurt me in arguments. She’s even said multiple times that she wishes I would’ve died. It hurts me. She never visited me when I was in the hospital, only my brother. I feel like I’m nothing to her. I always thought that it was a phase for her. Maybe she feel’s like her being so cold makes her a badass or maybe she is insecure about herself and feels the need to tear me down. Every day I cry to my parents telling them that I can’t stand how she treats me and that I hate her. They always get upset with me and tell me that its just how sisters are and that I shouldn’t hate her but this has gotten so out of hand that I don’t believe it’s some sort of sisterly feud anymore. I can proudly say that I have never said anything mean to her. I don’t retaliate at her rude comments and I don’t show that it hurts me when she treats me poorly. I was bullied as a child and so I’m not gonna bully my own sister! I just hate her. Hate is a strong word, but I feel like it’s rightfully used in this situation. I’ve never met anyone who makes me feel so empty and alone. I really need a coping mechanism to just help me accept that this wont change. I need help on how to get over her.
