Hello,
I am so sorry that you found out this way. When you are adopted sometimes your parents or who is taking care of you now, they may not want you or the other kids or teenagers to know and just think it is okay because they are the one's who are now your parents. It is hard because if we do not know we look at them as our parents or aunt and uncle or grandparents and that it totally fine to do. Then you have the people who have adopted kids and teenagers and they are fine with letting them know that they have been adopted.

I think that it is lovely of your bother who was talking to you and was able to help you out some. I think up above talking about writing a letter is a great way and then you can give it to them or put it on your parents bed. This way you can put everything in it that you need to say and then at the end of this ask if you can all talk about this calmly together. When you have time try finding something to get your mind off of this for example going for a walk or listening to music or drawing or painting or putting on a funny movie or TV show or talking to your brother or something else that you enjoy doing. I hope that you will be okay soon.
