The five stages are real. Try to remember something about your sister that made you laugh or a humorous situation you two shared. Melatonin might help a little and is not a drug. Each stage takes its own time and is different for everyone.

I’m sorry about your sister. Anger is a natural part of the grieving process but it sounds like you could use some help managing right now.

You are not. You are dealing with grief. I went through a horrible time with it and depression after my parents and fiancé died in my late 20’s. Got on medicine and grief counseling saved my life.

When I lost my daughter , I went through it. There is not a lot that will help other than talking it out

Trust me. Good luck to you and sorry you lost her.

You need to talk to someone


I do and she referred to me a place in Monroe that didn't call until late SATURDAY night to schedule appt and everything. I'm going tomorrow. They wrote me something that hasn't worked. Ativan hasn't worked either.

Especially since he’s currently angry. Anger one of the earlier stages of grief. Depression is one of the latter stages, and it’s on the horizon.

You need to get professional help sooner rather than later. The longer you go without sleep, the less rational you’ll be and you’ll end up in a vortex that’s going to end badly.

When my first sibling passed away, I was sad, of course, but saw what a great person he was, how many lives he impacted, what a great legacy he was leaving behind, etc. and realized he had a pretty great life big picture. Your sister would want you to be happy. Imagine how you’d feel if the roles were reversed and you were looking down at your sister.

I know the feeling my man. Lost my sister to cancer and she had two young daughters. Life just isn’t fair many times especially when crackheads and thieves live on after all the BS they put their bodies through yet living a normal healthy lifestyle still kills you. F’d up.

When I called my dad and told him he blew up because no one told him she was struggling to that damn point. I found out on facebook by seeing her obituary posted by her biological mom. I didn't know where she was for years. We were so close when we were younger and I never knew she was hurting. I would've been there. I begged her to come home in 2021 when she reached out, then she went ghost until she moved back to Nola and had a heart attack. I'm fricking angry. I miss her face so damn bad and there isn't shitni can do about it but let it work itself out?

As others have said, definitely talk to someone. I’ve been on both sides as the therapist but also as someone who lost a sibling.

Psychology Today will give you the options of selecting your area, your insurance, and under “issues” will let you select grief to find someone specifically for that.

I’m sorry. Losing a sibling is hard. And difficult when it feels like everything is geared towards the loss of someone else (I.e. parent losing a child, spouse losing a spouse, etc).

So sorry for your loss, I dealt with this too with a close loved one aswell, you're not alone

I feel like the best way to deal with this is to talk to someone who you trust, at-least that's how I dealt with the loss of a loved one. It helps alot, trust me. I talked to a therapist when I lost someone I really loved, and I felt a little better every time I came in for an appointment, and it helped immensely.

Good times will come friend, best wishes towards you and your family

Anger is but 1 stage of grief.

Have you already been through bargaining?

That'd help. Talking to everyone grieving the same death doesn't work at all.
