[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you truly believe she is struggling with mental illness, it's not reasonable to believe that she is making a conscious choice to behave the way she does just to upset you. [/quote]

+1, you have some significant mental health issues in your family.  She needs love and support not you being nasty.[/quote]

That's the thing, I wasn't nasty. I was honest and I am tired. I'm tired of pretending like there isn't a very clear problem. I am tired of my dad pretending like I am not the only one who is taking care of him emotionally. Minus me he would be alone. The brunt is on me, but the credit is being shared. Now that my mom is gone everything is on me, but no one will acknowledge it. I am the strong one and I am absolutely sick of the roll.[/quote]
1. You seem to be of the mistaken belief that you can't be both honest and cruel at the same time. 
2. Who cares about "credit being shared equally?" There is no best daughter prize. Get over it. 
3. Only one that is taking care of him emotionally is very nebulous. Did you ever think that the fact that he feels that your other siblings also take care of him may mean that he doesn't view things the same way you do?
4.  Honest or not there is no legitimate reason why you needed to "be honest" with your sister via text. Seriously, most people wouldn't even break up with someone they have been on a few dates with via text. Let alone make mental diagnosis of a sibling. 
5. If you were trying to help you would have given her some resources (I.e. The name of a mental health professional in her areas). Instead you just told her all the ways she sucks and expected her to be grateful. [/quote]
