Am I being a spoilt brat here?

Six sessions wouldn’t even touch the sides. Sorry to sound negative but it wouldn’t. Yes I would almost certainly benefit from it. But I am struggling to keep a roof over my head right now. There really isn’t anything more I can cut to make it viable

I disagree. Look at what you said and what you said it in response to.

Yes because we can all afford counselling! 🙄

Just to clear a few things up here. The situation was that I was visiting a said relative two weeks ago. Whilst there I received a phone call about my treatment telling me the price this time around was almost twice what I paid last time. I took myself off to receive the call and then took my dogs out for a wander (on my mobility scooter) to clear my head. Yes I was upset but I did what I could to hide that. Later that day my relative asked me point blank how it said treatment was going and ended up telling them the truth - that I was struggling because of the price difference and was going to delay treatment by a few weeks so I could make up the difference.
They immediately offered to fund the difference. Which I accepted and was an am extremely grateful for.

what upset me was over a week later was when said family member posts in a group chat that they have given me x amount of money (with no context about what it was for) and told the others they had sent them the same amount of money to ‘go and enjoy themselves’.

There wasn’t any option for me to have anything to enjoy. Never is. This is a pattern that has been on repeat since forever.
The money wasn’t a gift that was given to me and I have chosen to use it on my treatment - if I hadn’t needed it the money wouldn’t exist for any of us.

I don’t begrudge them the money. But I do begrudge being made to feel like I don’t deserve anything nice. Which is again a pattern that has been going on decades.

The treatment is a combination of steroid injections, physio and hydrotherapy and other things which keep me upright. Literally!
Do I sound pissed off at the other family members who have more than me? Maybe! But there is huge backstory which involve them being at least partially responsible for the accident which caused current my condition. With no lasting negative effects for them.

What a way to completely distort the intent of my post. Of course not. What point are you trying to prove?

My mum and dad are similar in that if they give one of their children money for something, they give the other siblings the same amount. They want things to be equal, which is fair enough (we always tell them we don't need it, but they insist!). Yes, you do sound a bit ungrateful.

So you would help out your disabled DD less in order to provide help that isn’t actually needed for a non-disabled child (to use this example)? Make someone’s life harder who already has a harder life because of some misguided and misunderstanding sense of “fair”?

I would hope that if you explained why you were doing this to your non-disabled child she would tell you not to be such an idiot. If she accepted it as her due that’s incredibly spoilt of her.

I disagree. If the reading one is perfectly happy and content with the library card and assuming resources are finite as they usually are, would you tell the first one they couldn't do their activities just so they other could have an un-needed pot? I will help all my kids to my utmost but it's based on need. If twenty years down the line those needs change but the resources are gone, that's a shame but that's life.

OP did you just throw a MN tantrum?

Ah right. So you acknowledge that people are different and therefore the op isn’t being unreasonable in feeling sad about this? Great, I agree.
