The bond between siblings is one of the strongest relationships in our lives.

They shape our identities and provide a shared history like no other.

Yet for some of us this connection can become a source of profound pain and conflict, sometimes even leading to rifts that sever communication and cause deep emotional scars.

When you have to endure constant criticism, manipulation, disrespect, jealousy or boundary violations that leave you feeling emotionally drained, undervalued or hurt beyond words, you are likely dealing with a toxic sibling.
