Finlay MacDonald, 41, said he was humiliated and left with low self-esteem when John MacKinnon assaulted him in 2013 and his father had to intervene to stop him being battered.
The High Court in Edinburgh yesterday heard that MacDonald told a psychiatrist: "That was the start of all of this.
"Something happened in my mind that day."
He told Dr Suraj Shenoy: "The beginning of all my problems was John MacKinnon attacking me in 2013." The psychiatrist said: "He said that since that incident in 2013, he had tried to avoid any contact with his brother-in-law."
