They often play a secondary role: siblings of mentally ill individuals frequently find themselves alone with their needs and achievements, their worries and fears. For some, this lasts a lifetime. They are the natural doers, the sunshine children, mediators between parents and siblings. The relationship with their ill sibling is complex—sometimes they have a strong protective instinct, other times they harbor resentment. Some have become stronger due to the responsibility, while others feel robbed of their childhood years. Jana Hauschild gives a voice to these adult siblings. With great empathy, the psychologist describes the backgrounds, explores the feelings of those who are overlooked, and accompanies them on their journey to self-discovery.
