What to do about my sister and my daughter

I am truly distraught over this.
My daughter came to see me yesterday, with some complaints. Some are justified. She is fed up with me calling her when I am in an ambulance on my way to hospital. She says I am 'crying wolf' when there is nothing much wrong with me.

She also said I was a 'drug addict ' and that I needed therapy.

I know that she has been talking to my sister, because my sister has previously called me a drug addict and said that I need therapy.

I am convinced that my daughter is only repeating what my sister has told her.

For context: I accidentally overdosed on a prescription medication. That does not make me a drug addict.

I am furious with my sister for messing up my relationship with my daughter.

I am tempted to call my sister and have it out with her.

Any advice on this would be much appreciated.

Maybe your DD is under stress herself if you have a DH don't go bothering your DD unless necessary

I agree with Sarnia’s post- try to get some help with your anxiety. Although you will be waiting a while as there is a long waiting list.

In a previous thread fancyflowers said they were super rich and told is what she had in savings.

I would suggest fancyflowers to use some of that money to help with your anxiety.

Find a good counsellor.
