I am new here and recently diagnosed, also. My brother and I have not spoken for years. Like you, I wanted a relationship with him for years. We share a common history of abuse. I have sought counseling and he has not. He blames me for the way my mother and step-father treated him (?).

I am looking forward to getting to know you. I have found this forum a very comforting place to be.
