A very long story short, we were having a family conversation, my brother made some comment that didn’t agree with me, so I got up to leave the room, whereupon my brother referred to my mental illness as “dramatics,” so naturally, I blew up and cursed him out, and we haven’t spoken since, other than his rant-text where he basically accuses me of “making everything about me.” Even if I was in the wrong, he doesn’t seem to understand how hurtful his comment was. Not has he ever made an attempt to understand what I deal with. In fact, he’s gone so far as to actively avoid it.
I don’t feel like I owe him an apology for cursing him out after his comment. AITA for refusing to apologize?
Edit context for clarification.
