[quote=Anonymous]I have a younger sister who has severe depression and social anxiety and has since middle school. She's unemployed and wishes not to live anymore. I've asked her if she plans on hurting herself or ending her life and she has said no, she would never do that to me, but if she were to become ill, she would not seek treatment. Both our parents passed away from different health issues earlier in life and I don't know what I can do. She won't seek therapy because it's been impossible to find and her social anxiety makes putting forth effort next to impossible. She's starting showing symptoms of high blood pressure, but won't get checked out. She's still in her 30s, young and has plenty of life left regardless if she wants it or not. How is this sustainable? Has anyone here had a sibling like this? What worked for them to "wake them up"? Any hope here? [/quote]
