[quote:Anonymous Coward 81680631:MV81MTYxNjA1Xzk0ODA1MDIzX0NFMDhCOEFB] [quote:Anonymous Coward 10511121:MV81MTYxNjA1Xzk0ODA0ODE2XzIzRTAyOTNC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 75155617:MV81MTYxNjA1Xzk0ODA0NzA4X0Q2MUY3MjQw] My sister who is 9 years older, threw me at age 3 into the neighbors pool and watched me drown. I remember seeing the bright blue sky as I lay on the bottom of the pool. As I inhaled and vomited the water the sky got smaller and smaller until it was black. The neighbor lady who owned the pool jumped in and rescued me, giving me CPR and saved my life. That was 60 years ago. I never even went to the hospital. My parents just kept me in bed for like a week. I have avoided my sister who is diagnosed as a schizophrenic and multiple personality. She was jealous of me then and still is. [/quote] this is actually sort of common, the older child is more than mildly resentful of the younger child they feel the parents love them more and it makes them INSANE with jealousy, like the story of Cain and Abel, those bible stories really just punch all those psychological buttons [/quote] One of my older cousins was like that toward her little sister. The older daughter was an only, very spoiled and obnoxious child, until she was 11- then another daughter was born. She would shove her sister down as a toddler, shove her off porches, slap her around and leave bruises when the little sister was just a toddler. She even burned her with matches. [/quote]

I was 3. Had an ear tag. I remember being held down on the hospital bed, lime green walls, and the med team shoving a black mask over my face to put me out.
They say mental illness is spawned from trauma.
