My sibling claims to have depression so I did my best to support and give them space. However, they’re just taking advantage of everything me and my family does for them. Afterwards, they always make me guilty saying I hurt them or am attacking them. If I did something wrong, I always apologize. But they don’t even tell me what I did wrong and often just make me feel bad that I did them wrong. I tell them to tell me what I did wrong so I can improve but in the end they just sent me text messages saying I hurt them, they need space, and I’m being mean. Am I being insensitive or is this something else? I don’t want to confront them as the last time I tried, they cursed at me and locked themselves in my room. Do I have to adjust more for you? I mean, have you ever asked me about my day or if I was fine? I don’t even remember the last time you thanked me or apologized for your actions. I don’t know guys, am I the one wrong? Am I being insensitive towards them? I know I have anger issues but it’s not like I’ve ever bursted and said bad things to you or about you. I’m torn. I don’t want anyone speaking bad about my sibling but I’m here for reassurance. Someone please tell me it’s not my fault my sibling is like this.

depression is a mental illness. when i had it, i was similar to your sibling. i was convinced that everything that someone said to me was just another reason that they wanted me to die. of course, that wasn't true. your sibling doesn't tell you what you're doing wrong is because there is no logic behind what they're feeling. they don't even know themselves. my advice is to just let it be. it may sound harsh because they're going through a dark time in their life, and our natural response is to be by their side and offer help. but with this, your help may hurt them for no good reason. i think you should try to be subtle with your help. maybe just sit beside them, give hugs, or just give them space when they want it. and treat them how you normally would. try your best not to tip toe around them and over compensate. it may make them feel worse because it could feel like pity, you know? i hope your sibling is seeing a therapist and i hope you're okay as well. you're doing great.
ReplyNo, you are not wrong, it's not your fault. I think it's usually when people don't want to confront their situation or the things they did or happen so they usually take it out on others. Your sibling might be going through something and thinks that no one can understand it. Don't be torn, I am sure they will surely come around.
