I am emotionally drained from my sister's antics. She has always had problems, but lately she is always having meltdowns, and constantly putting unfair and unrealistic demands on me and my (grown) kids. She is constantly harassing my 19 year old daughter. She is always letting us know how bad she's doing. She's so needy.

It sounds like you and sis live very close to each other. Can you sit down with her and have a conversation about how she is treating your family? If not maybe you need to tell her that she needs to limit her visits so that she is not stressing you out so often. Is she seeing a counselor or a T? Maybew you should suggest that to her.
Thanks for this!

I know this is a bit of a late response. I've tried talking to her about things in the past and it always turned out pretty bad. And I know she won't take too well to me suggesting she see a therapist. She's got this idea in her head that, since she's the oldest sister, that I have no right to tell her anything.
