Last night my sisters trailer burned down. It's a total loss. I am soooooo sad right now. I don't know what to do. I don't know if this is a bp low or low because of what happened.
I wish I could help my sister, but all I can do is be there for her. ![]()

thats terrible , im so sorry, all you can do is be there for her. And let her know how sad you are too. There is no point hiding it, dont hold it all in and try deal with the emotion when your alone. Just give her your love its the best thing you can offer. Tell her you are there for her.
But look after yourself, talk to others as much as you need to about it. What happens to our loved ones affects us. Xxxxxxxxxx i hope that you can all bond together in this time and realise no matter how much has been lost, no matter waht the strugggle you have each other, that there is love worth more than material goods. |

thinking of you both
![]() its ok to feel sad when things go bad, its not BP, but take care that it doesn't spiral out of control. Try to do things that are uplifting, don't feel bad if you find moments of happiness even in this struggle.

Thanks. Yes, I have been really struggling with feeling happy during this time. I feel bad about it....I know I shouldn't, but it's hard.

We're as human as the next person is and we have a right to feel sad too. This sadness is appropriate. The feelings of uncertainty because of this accident is normal. Don't put yourself down! :'(

![]() Do not feel guilty for happiness. Think of this... There are times when there is so much darkness. There are times when there is so much light. Most of the time though, it is a mixed bag. Good and bad, side by side. It is better to be able to see both without feeling the need to be blinded by one or the other. Does that make any sense? |

Now she's overmedicating herself because she is depressed. She is bipolar, too. I just don't know what to do.

Once she has a permanent place to stay, you should check out a Yahoo group - freecycle.com They are specific to a city like mine - mankatofreecycle.com. Their function is able to ask for items or offer items at no cost. I gave out a sewing machine and some home repair books. Others have gotten furniture, appliances and other household goods.

I just messaged our local radio DJ in hopes he can help get the word out about my sister. He does a LOT for the community and when I called he told me to email him with the details and he will see what he can do to help.
He is awesome!

Well, now they have beds, a tv and my friend donated end tables, rocking chair, blankets, sheets, towels and pillows to them. Things are coming around slowly, but surely.
