It was sad the children had to raise themselves. And I always had to try to help the kids. I felt so sorry for them. Well my twin sisters boys are older now and do not want me to help anymore because they want to run wild and do whatever because they have no parents to watch over them...

You probably know this: I think your sister's kids do not "want" you to help because they think you will fail. Their hurt is so great. It sounds as though they could use professional help too.

And I am only touching on how sick it has all been. That is why I wanted to have someone to talk to. To get all these horrible sad emotions out of me. I am usually an upbeat person. I love my husband and daughter. They are great. But the last few years I felt like I was losing my self. And that I have to do something. So I thought seeing someone would help me. But this therapist was not the one I guess. How do you find another one? Just keep trying until you feel they are right?

It is good you have your husband and daughter. How do you find a therapist that fits you? That's the question lots of us face. I think you do have to try until they feel right. Not easy.
