Last week, I was driving down empty roads at 3am because my sister needed to see the ocean—immediately. Five minutes later, she’s in tears over a burnt Pop-Tart. Life with her moods? Never boring, always unpredictable. I used to think a pep talk could fix everything. Turns out, it’s not that simple. Here’s what actually helps me get through those wild moments: • Mood swings aren’t just drama—they’re real, and it’s not her fault. • I check in, but if she’s not ready to talk, I give her space. • Meds and treatment? That’s her call with her doctor, not mine. • I keep a crisis plan in my bag, just in case—because you never know. When I need a breather, I watch my favorite show or text a friend. I can’t fix everything, and that’s totally fine. Sometimes, you just pass the snacks and hold on tight.
