Can’t help but feel jealous of how my family are responding to this crisis?

Ok maybe jealous isn’t the right word but my sister is having a hard time at the minute with her mental health, she has opened up to us and asked for support and we will all of course support her emotionally, practically, whatever she needs. My parents have spoke to me and my other sister to make it clear that the family’s focus right now is helping her through this. I am very worried about her and hope she is ok, we are very close.

but I can’t help but compare how my parents and siblings are responding to this crisis compared to how they responded when I had a crisis and was very worried to tell them but I did and asked for support.

Are the crisis comparable?

Maybe they've learnt from your experiences and improved their response?

Comparable in that they are both about mental health and admitting to something that would be very hard to disclose
