Sending lots of hugs
It was really kind of you to stick up for your sister, im sorry he started being mean to you too.
Youve got so much on your plate, im really sorry about everything going on. You never have to bottle it all up, we are always here to listen. Special ocasions must be extra hard. Sending big hugs, sorry i cant help more but im always happy to listen
I'm very sorry you've been dealing with all of this, it can be very overwhelming to argue with family members, especially when they do not make you feel loved and supported. it's very positive you chose to stand up for your sister when she needed.
Bereavement can be very hard around holidays, here is a resource you might want to use to discuss things if it ever comes to it
The Cruse National Helpline is staffed by trained bereavement support volunteers, who offer free emotional support, information, and counselling to anyone affected by a bereavement. Their helpline number is 0808 808 1677 and it is open from Monday and Friday 9:30am-5pm; Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 9:30am-8pm and Saturday and Sunday from 10am -2pm. They also have a webchat service open from 9am - 9pm Monday to Friday. For email support, you can contact them on helpline@cruse.org.uk. You can also visit their website at www.cruse.org.uk.
You're right in saying that trying to please everyone and acting like everything is fine might do more harm than good. Let us know how you've been feeling and what kind of resources you might need.
