Irreversible damage to a little boy?

Question:

when I was 5 to 8 yrs my family(uncles, cousins etc..) did not like my little brother He was just 2 years older than me. He suffered from epilepsy and He would be too hyperactive. He was rejected, insulted and left alone for many years. When my little sister was born she got all the attention! I would cry at night because I hated discrimination and insults and I felt helpless. I wanted to stand up for my brother and beat u everybody who would dare to insult him.He is 16yrs now and he is a very bright young adult..but He grew up hating my sister and everybody who ever tells him something. He is also depressive and has a very low self esteem. I love my two siblings very much but I don't know what to do to reverse the damage..They fight all the time and we can't afford a therapist. Thank you!

Answers:
I think you should sit down with your brother and ask him how he feels and see if you could spend some extra time with him. Talk to your sister too and tell her that she needs to try to understand that having a sibling with something like epilepsy requires more attention because you never now when they could have a seziure. I have a sister who has the same condition and she needs constant care and attention, but also suggest that your sister and brother, and you,sit down together and find out if there is anything that they might want to talk about or how they feel. I really hope this helps. :) P.S.: I know how it feels to live with a sibling who has epilepsy. Keep those spirits high:)
