I hope I don't offend anyone by asking for your help. But a couple of days ago my sister was taken to hospital after taking an overdose. She has told us she has been suffering anxiety and depression for a long time, she said she has felt ashamed and like nobody would understand.
She said it all became to much to deal with alone and that is why she did what she did.
I want be there for her and will do anything I can do to help her, but I don't know where to start. I have tried researching anxiety and depression and although I understand a bit more about it, I want to know how she is feeling,what she needs from her family and how to make her better.
I am hoping somebody is able to give me some help and maybe some positive outcomes from similar situations.
I am so upset for her and feel awful she has had to deal with this alone for so long.
