Vibes Needed

I think most of you know about the situation with my BFF's sister and her suicide attempt over the summer.

In early September, she told her therapist that she thought she may hurt herself again, so they put her back in the hospital for a couple of weeks. At that time my BFF seemed to think it was more of an attention thing than any real attempt.

I got a text from BFF last night saying that her sister's back in the hospital. She took a bunch of sleeping pills again (that was how she tried the first time), and they will probably be putting her in an extended program, which will make her miss BFF's wedding and everything. She doesn't know this yet.

I am so sad for my friend and her sister. I have no idea whether it is attention seeking or whether it is true depression, but at this point it doesn't matter. I just want her to get better and get whatever help she needs. I realize (and so does my friend), that the wedding is not what matters - it is her sister - but I still feel bad that she's going through all of this at the same time. It's just sad and sh!tty all around. Any vibes/thoughts/prayers that you all have is greatly appreciated.

    I'm definitely sending good vibes. I'm so sorry for your BFF's sister - even if it is "for attention," someone has to be in a pretty bad place emotionally to swallow sleeping pills. I truly hope she gets the help she needs. I'm sorry your BFFs are having to deal with this too, it must be hard for her.

    Hoping for the best for her. 

    Just remind your BFF, even though her sister won't be at her wedding, she still has her sister and that is what matters. Things like this aren't easy to discuss with people, but be there for her and keep reminding her how lucky she is to have her sister. I know it can seem like attention seeking behaviour, her sister does need the attention right now and hopefully it will give her the encouragement she needs to seek help and over come her depression. Maybe it would be a good idea for your friend to talk to some type of therapist as well so she can deal with her feelings about the situation and maybe it will help her to feel better about her sister missing her wedding?

    It's a very sad situation, whether for attention or due to depression. It sounds like your BFF's sister has something big she's struggling with, and I hope she gets the help she needs.

    I agree that it might be a good idea for your BFF to talk to someone to help her deal with what she's feeling about everything.
