sorry if I'm wrong but I'm assuming you're a minor. With that assumption, if your mother is treating you and your brother in a way that is making you feel like that I recommend the therapy route as well but that behavior is mental abuse and can continue to get worse as a result of her not fearing consequences or being shown it is actually wrong, not to mention long term affects on both you and your sibling leading to issues within yourselves later in life. If you aren't able to or are denied therapy I recommend finding a way to report this to a social worker at your school or through your county, even call a su*cide prevention line and tell them how you feel and what treatment you're receiving , they might be able to help you get the resources you need.

Without giving too much info I was denied therapy when requested by my parents and it took my being hospitalized because of ulcers I developed due to the stress I was inuring at home to finally have the chance to tell a social worker that gave me the information to get the help I wanted to deal with my surroundings and forced my family to allow me to attend. so before it gets worse , do know you aren't the only one that this happens to so don't allow others to dismiss you and invalidate you. If you think its serious and will continue, seek out resources in your county and find laws that can protect you (especially if you guys are underage) and can allow you to get assistance in the resources you need for help.

Just because you feel emotions doesn't mean you're dramatic, You are valid <3

@kokichi_brand_soda: It's not abuse; she tells me and my brother to STFU in front of my dad and he does nothing about it and says she "didn't do anything wrong". she also thinks its ok to call my brother a b*tch. and lies to my dad. But thank you so much! (also i do swap houses)
