Lowest point in my life.

So here it is Christmas day and I am in a hotel as the police have sent me away from my brother and his girl friend as we had a massive argument. 



I don't hate my brother but he stabs me in the back every chance he gets I fight back but he always manipulates my mum against me. 





When you have a mother or an older brother you expect them to be good people but that isn't always the case. 



My wife and I have been having problems conceiving and my dad's dead and my mum hates me even though I have always done my best for her. 



I would commit suicide but it would be doing them a favour I want to be successful and help the people of tomorrow

Rich, sorry you are having such a hard time. Hang in there, don't do anything without thinking clearly. Just think to yourself "These moments will pass". They do too! Try and keep busy, maybe read a good book, watch a funny movie.

It sucks when family turns against you. Family bonds should be the strongest bonds on earth. Sometimes they are distorted or are not the strongest bonds.

Give it time..... try and heal the issue with your brother maybe? Or simply just give it time.

Sorry you're having a rough time. Family can be difficult to deal with. Have had my share due to an issue from childhood; won't go into it now, but have posted about it before.
As stigmata said, give it some time and hopefully you and your brother can work things out.
Trying to conceive can be a difficult and frustrating process. When I was married (many years ago), we tried for a while and unfortunately weren't successful(not the reason for our divorce). If you've been trying for a while and haven't done so already, you two should consider getting tested(making sure her 'pipes' are working and that your swimmers are intact.
Hope everything works out for you!!
