My brother and I talk a lot about this, how we're only 5 years apart, but the first 5 years of my childhood and the last 5 of his are full of completely different types of abuse, and we weren't really treated the same during the years we were home together. The worst things that happened to me happened before he was old enough to form memories, and his were after I left the house.

Mine is 2 years younger but it resulted in post traumatic stress and high dissociation for me, and not nearly as bad effects for my sibling. We were treated different, had different roles, we are different in that I’m neurodivergent and he is not, and also he had a much more available social group of his age.
