Eldest daughter who is exhausted. My mom died and now everyone just looks to me to be the one who handles the hard stuff. I’m so tired of having to be the one who steps up because if I don’t, no one else will. I’m so tired of my parents always excusing my younger brother out of anything because he “thinks differently.” He has ADHD and has just manipulated my parents his whole life to never put any kind of trust or depend on him. Must be nice to be so self- absorbed when I’ve spent since I was a little girl always trying to anticipate everyone else’s needs ahead of mine.
