It hasnt been good ever since I became a teenager. Police have been called to the house twice since I was 16 after he started getting violent towards me.
He got arrested once and released without charge, I got arrested once and released without charge.
Another thing that annoyed me this time is after I hit him back he was going on at my mum to call them. She was like, you have to be joking you started it etc. Then I left.
When I was 16 we fought and he threw me against a wall while I was trying to call the police, I clouted him over the head with the phone and I ran upstairs and barricaded myself in a room until they arrived. They arrested him after one of the attending officers saw a huge lump on my head.
Then a couple of years ago we fought after he went for me when I was trying to fix one of my cars on the driveway. Mum got between us and he was hurting her when trying to get to me, so I picked up a metal bar and threatened him with it to get him out of the house, which worked. But he called the police on me from outside.
I was interviewed with a lawyer present over a charge of attempted GBH. My lawyer thought it was completely ridiculous after I explained in full detail what happened and that I didn't intend to hit him with the metal bar. I was let off without charge after that... Police cell matress' are like gym mats, very uncomfortable... The lasagne was good though. But difficult to eat with the plastic safety spork...
My TTE rear strut bar is still in the evidence lockup.
He doesn't accept he has a problem, or that he is even part of the problem, he sees it as being entirely me. I've never got violent first, only in self defence/retaliation.
Moving out can't come soon enough.
He is like Jekyl and Hyde. Sometimes we get on fine. There is definitely something wrong with him, but they didn't diagnose that sort of thing when he was a kid.
I myself was diagnosed as on the ADHD spectrum when I was a child. These days my main issues are anxiety and depression.
