Today, my wannabe psychologist of a brother accused me of lying about all the violence and emotional abuse my ex inflicted on me, all because I went into "too much detail" when describing it, which he says is something only liars do. Thanks for the support. FML

Today, my brother and I got in a fight and he told my friends that I am mentally disabled. They believed him. Apparently, "everything makes sense now." FML
Today, I've been guilt tripped, ranted at, called names, ostracized and told what a horrible person I am for, "turning my back on family." My former brother is in jail for unspeakable crimes, yet somehow I’m the bad guy for not standing by and supporting him or offering to help pay for a lawyer. FML
Today, I went through my boyfriend’s phone. He'd told his brothers, mom, and mutual friends that I was at a psych ward, after I went crazy. We have been back together for four months now after that situation, so no wonder I got the vibe they hate me. Why lie about something so stupid? FML
Today, at my wedding, my golden child brother gave a speech that was a load of lying shite. He was telling tales of arrests, drug use, sexual antics, the lot. My wife knows it’s not true but her family think I’m scum, and my mother just told me she’s “not angry, just disappointed in me.” FML
Today, my psycho and now ex-girlfriend accused me of cheating on her with my own mother. FML
Today, my brother asked his wife for a divorce, but she got so mad at him that he backtracked and told her it was a prank I'd put him up to. She’s still mad as hell at him, but thanks to his lie my name is now mud in our entire family. I was at work all day, and I did nothing wrong. FML
Today, my brother learned how to fake cry. I've been catching shit for everything I've done and said near him ever since. FML
Today, my brother was telling me about my "sweet" and "pure" ex-girlfriend. Three stab wounds have already proven otherwise. FML
Today, my demented little sister walked up to me and kicked me between the legs. I told my parents, but they just accusingly asked me what I did to provoke her. When I said, "Nothing", they accused me of lying. There is no justice. FML
Today, my now ex-boyfriend accused me of wanting to screw his 11-year-old brother, all because I expressed interest in going to his birthday party. FML

I think your brother should maybe the one to see a psychologist

Your brother probably doesn't want to believe it even happened. It's easier to call someone a liar than to accept the painful truth.

Or maybe something people focused on traumatic experiences do. When is your brother going to study PTSD?

That actually tends to be true. But I'm sorry, OP.

Yes, only liars give details...and people in need of a listening ear. Go to a real psychologist, OP, one who's less of an insensitive douche.

This is why people shouldn't make assumptions based off of a generality

If that happened to me and my brother was that much of an a**, I would have given him an "example" of what the bastard did to me.

He needs to lay off of the Netflix detective shows and get a real job. Lmao

F*** your brother. Family isn't worth sh*t if they aren't supportive and loving. Also, CONGRATS ON GETTING OUT!!! It's not an easy feat. Know there are many people who are supportive and sending you well wishes.

I guess that your brother watched too much law and order and not enough paying attention in psych class. While it is true that most people do not go into detail about their abuse, they refrain from doing so because thinking about it at that level is traumatizing. It certainly isn't true of all people.

Your brothers an idiot and an asshole. Everybody remembers things differently.
