Didn’t plan on writing this, but am officially freaked out. My younger sister is on her way to a psych ward right now, apparently she is severely depressed. I feel like it’s all my fault. I’m so afraid, this is her second time there. Just needed to rant.

    You aren’t responsible for anyone’s mental health but your own. Unless youve been abusing her, you aren’t responsible.

    If she is actually depressed, then she should be receiving mental health aid, and there’s nothing to be “at fault” for. Perhaps there might be better suited facilities to help her, but it sounds like she does need help if she’s that depressed.

    If she is in perfect mental health and you’ve somehow got her put in a psych ward anyway, then sure, you’re causing problems and it’s your fault.
