I am so heartbroken/disappointed and its christmas today! My father and his family are emotionally/mentally abusive. My mother, brother, and I have suffered many years of emotional torment and mental breakdowns because of my father's sick twisted manipulating antics. He is sick, literally! My parents have seperated since the past few months, but father and his family are still not done with their dirty manipulating deeds. They have turned my own brother against my mother and I, and it breaks my heart so much that I have lost my brother to their manipulative antics. They have completely brainwashed my brother into thinking that my mother is the bad person and she is the reason for the entire break up and the reason why I don't speak to my own father. My father is a total loser and sick for making my own brother (who I love so much) to be against me. I don't know what to do, and everytime I try to talk to my brother he thinks I am telling him lies. I don't know what to do anymore...

Your brother has made his decision, and now it is up to you to make yours.
In fact, it seems you have ~ you have chosen to support your mother at this time, and to break free from the fear in which you have lived.
This is a hard thing to do, and you are not alone.
Please contact one or all of the links below, where you will be able to speak by telephone or online with someone who understands your situatrion and can provide information and practical assistance.
Please don't let sorrow and regret replace abuse in wasting away the joy of life for yourself and your mother.
Break free and live the life you can ~ with the right help and support you can do it! :-)
Best wishes and good luck :-)

I am very sorry for your disappointment, but you cant be a victim of manipulation unless you let them. Let your brother go, if your father is as bad as you say he is, your brother will find out soon enough on his own and he will return on his own. Its time that you and your mother get on with your life. Try and make the best out of a bad situation. You and your mom can make the most out of the holidays. Do something, just the two of you can enjoy. Depend on yourself for your happiness don't let the actions of others ruin it for you. Trust me you have not lost your brother he will come around, but you should not wait around for this to happen..Move on.

Hi Hon...
Abuse is a terrible thing, i know from first-hand experience.
I'd say just let your brother go, and give him time. Separation, abuse, divorce and family turmoil really play on the emotions. So, your brother probably doesn't know what to do... or how to feel right now.
Take care of you.. tell your mom you love her... IGNORE the father and his family, and try not to let them run your emotions....
Next time you see your brother, you don't have to give him reasons to like mom over dad, just tell him you love him, that's all.... hugs
