Depression Questions
My sister has been battling eating disorders and depression almost all her life. She is 31. I am so worried about her. She looses her jobs because all she does is sleep. I don't know what to do to help her. She has been to therapists, clinics, support groups. She has been on numerous meds but nothing has helped.
I want to be there for her. Should I just drive her to a treatment facility??? It's driving me crazy and my family crazy. We don't know what she is going through, but we want to be there for her. All she says is "nothing, no one can help me." I am really scared. I tried to call her at work this morning and they said she didn't show up. I have called and called her cell; no answer. I have even left a text message for her boyfriend to let her know to call me. How can I stop worrying?? I feel like I have a child, and I am the little sister! Oh, and did I mention that her boyfriend is a complete asshole??
What do I do to help her? Does anyone else have family members that are going thru this situation? What have you done to help them? I feel like if I don't force her to get help she is going to die. It's killing me.
