I am a 23 year old girl and live with my parents and my younger brother. My parents are very loving and supportive but however they always distinguish between me and my brother. I do my level best to live up to their expectation and do everything suitable for an elder son but yet I do not get equal rights and freedom as my brother. I feel very depressed and suicidal at times. Please help.
Don’t even think of suicide. Suicides are for cowards and from what I can understand you are not a coward. If you could put up with all this so long then now you are at a stage where your whole future is in front of you. And as it is you will be not be living with them for your entire life. However, do talk to them and let them know how you feel. Tell them that just being a girl doesn’t make you any less capable then your brother and that they cannot take you or your feelings for granted.
