Anyone else get treated differently in their families? The eldest has a full time job and is paid significantly more than me but doesn’t pay for anything and I often am forced to end up buying them everything if we go out or I decide I fancy a takeaway - I have to get them something as well. 

The youngest is the favourite. They are very academic. Oxbridge/Cambridge material type clever. Goes a private school. Gets everything they want. 

Then there is me, who is attending Uni again soon and works part time and I don’t make much money. But I pay for everything. One of my parents often makes me buy gin on amazon for them. The other is one my staff discount at work so they get benefits of that. Yet, I’m the only one out of the three of us that is treated badly. 

At times in the day, I am not allowed to talk to my
younger sibling. I cannot ask how they are or spend time with them. I cannot make jokes. I’m just sick of it. 

I’ve locked myself in the bathroom to try and be left alone. How do I stop people treating me like shit? It happens at home, at work, in friendships, in relationships... It happens all the time. How do you stop it?
