I feel the same way you do, like I’m grieving my sister…. a part of me has died with what happened to her. It is just horrible, it’s so painful. When I last spoke with her, she couldn’t even align two words together that made sense, her behaviour was erratic and crazy and she would just go on rambling, it would just drive me insane. And yes, as hard as it is to accept, we can only do so much… They have to accept, we can’t do it for them, we can guide through things and support but that’s it. I was told many times to not feel guilty. I still do, I can’t help it. I just feel like if I had been there for her more, this wouldn’t have happened, as she was always the vulnerable one. If she had been under my wings and we had not been brutally separated, due to life circumstances, she would not have been down that road, that’s how I feel. She just went with the wrong crowd. But I wasn’t there. Your plan is wise and reasonable. I hope your partner accepts help. I wish you and your family the best <3
