My sister is getting married and she’s made other family bridesmaids etc or asked who’s staying at the hotel etc. I was in the kitchen yesterday and noticed on the fridge there’s a wedding invite, it has my parents name on it but not mine. I’m not even mentioned in it. So she’s invited our parents but not me. Everyone else is invited but not me and I feel hurt by it.
She use to bully me when we grew up and put me down in front of other people during family gatherings which always made me feel like an outcast. Everyone knows about it but never tell her to stop. She stayed with my grand parents briefly as when I had school exams, she was blaring the tv etc and shouting and screaming at me when I politely asked her to turn it down etc. She blames me for that.
I experienced a traumatic abusive relationship which has been very hard to cope with. And some family members were spreading untrue gossip behind my back, judging me etc, saying hurtful things that aren’t true all because I was going through a tough time. I’ve never done drugs, I don’t drink, I’ve never done anything “bad” to them. Yet they’ve made mistakes, some not good, yet everybody forgives them and no one judges or talks about that? Yet I got scrutinised for struggling with mental health after a really awful experience? What should I do? Part of me thinks I should move away (I can do this) but I also don’t want to leave my close friends behind in the area
