I will try to talk about it in a little bit when I quit crying. I’ve been crying for the past 2 hours.

Journal or go for a walk. Call a friend or crisis line if need be. Chat here. Sorry this happened. Waiting is no fun thats why back ups are important.

I think these are really good things to do for when you're feeling upset. I read quite a lot recently when I was going through a difficult time, it distracted my mind just enough.

I hope you feel better
Thanks for this!

That sounds really painful. I know how hard it can be when we have to wait a while to see our therapists when we feel we need them now. I admire your strength for hanging in there and taking the time you need to cope.

I feel for you and you're in my thoughts.
Thanks for this!

Someone is petitioning to have my brother and sister’s guardianship transferred to them. My siblings do not want that and I take good care of them. I can’t believe this.

Of course you don’t have to answer but is it your dad who wants guardianship? I hope not, I hope it is someone at least responsible as you have been.
Thanks for this!

And that's awful that someone is petitioning to take guardianship of your siblings. I would think the fact that they want to stay with you should have some weight.
Thanks for this!

That must be so hard. Do you know why, all of a sudden, this cousin wants guardianship? Keep posting here so we can support you.

Hope, where i live it takes a huge paper trail to prove someone is an unfit guardian. It's not s something that can happen in short amount of time. You will get through this. I just lost my 17 year old cat just before Thanksgiving. I miss her daily, but it gets better bit by bit everyday. Try to dig deep right now for your siblings. They need you and you need them. Keep posting. We are here.
