It is not your responsibility to completely walk your brother through this. I would say it is a little bit of your responsibility to guide him to seeing a therapist and many colleges will at least have a few free appointments available. It should never be someone’s responsibility to deal fully with someone’s feelings of inferiority to this extent because they can easily wear off on others

Girl it is absolutely fucking not 😭 idk how yalls relationship is but you are never responsible for managing someone else’s feelings, even if they’re your family. The more you try to take on other people’s baggage that you cannot control, the more unhappy you’ll be in the long run. Go on your damn date fam
