My 15 year old sister is failing her subjects at school particularly maths. My mum and grandmother is not happy with her school report. My mum is angry about spending loads of money on maths tuition.She sits her GCSE exams next year. In the UK people are required to have a grade C in both GCSE maths and English if they want to do A level subjects, to do a higher level course at a trade school( college) and even if they want employment as more employers demand it.

Actually it's all my fault my sister has not been doing well in school. This year I went to severe depression and lost a lot of weight because I was so heart-broken over that 55 year old man I fell so deeply in love with. For months I stopped eating and went back to abusing diet pills and laxatives. Then my sister had to help my grandmother lie about my diet pills abuse because my mother wouldn't cope. She reacts badly to stuff and it would be world war 3.

Everyone in the family knew how deeply heartbroken I was over the man.
My weight loss became noticeable. I got all the attention from my family whereas my sister pretty much got ignored throughout the months. My relatives are not supportive so my family unfortunately expect me to be strong one always me being the first born.

The large family tree of relatives we have both in Zambia and the UK don't give shit about us.Growing up my family expected me to be perfect and healthy because of lack of supportive family members and no father. I hate my relatives and how my mother forces us to interact with these arsehole people.

I always looked out for my sister and this time I have failed.

I'm really sorry about all of this, sounds like you feel extremely guilty that your sister didn't get enough attention this year because of your struggles. Your mental health isn't your fault, living in your household sounds very stressful, and seems doubly stressful for you as it seems like you are expected to take on a lot of responsibilities. You deserve attention too and you really needed it this year.

You sound like you really care about your sister and really looks out for her. Maybe chat with your sister, try to find out what's going on, how she's feeling, what she might need to get her grades up.
