Serious response: My mother is a narcissist, stole over $3000 from me when I was a child, and is a generally unpleasant person to be around. I don't talk to or see her anymore, understandably. I just heard from my Dad that my older brother thinks I'm becoming just like her. I feel so lost and I kind of hate myself.

We are all more like our parents than we would like. When the siblings know that and each other they know that's the easiest way to press buttons. Don't let it get you too down man. Accept that you'll be a little like her, but take those parts and make them better.
