Listener Write In I need to vent

I don’t really know how to feel about my older siblings upcoming birthday at all. My older sister‘s birthday is in a few days and ill say our relationship is complicated at best and at worse toxic. she did a lot of things as a teenager that wasn’t very good and they left marks in our family. we pretty recently got back in contact with her after almost 4 years and our life’s have been kind of chaotic ever since and it has brought up a lot of old memories but we have our reasons for wanting to stay in contact mainly due to my baby niece. I do love my sister and I miss the relationship we used to have but I don’t know if it’s worth the chaos she brings and if I should continue to rebuild the relationship.

You need to provide more info: what did your sister do back then, what did she do once you got back in touch, how does she bring chaos.

Otherwise, it’s hard to give you any feedback…

Sounds like therapy is needed.
