My little sister - who I am incredibly close to - recently had a suicide attempt. She immediately regretted it and called the police on herself, and they to her to the hospital. I found out because she and I were going to be moving stuff into my house (she's going to be moving in with me soon) and when I got to my parents house, the police were there. I was totally blindsided as I had just talked to her hours before about what time I'd be over. She was able to go home the same day as their staff felt she wasn't a danger to herself - she was very regretful and she has a solid support system at home - and we currently always have someone with her to keep her safe. 

I'm kind of feeling a lot of guilt over this whole situation over a lot of things. Two years ago, I had my own attempt (I'm doing much much better after a proper diagnosis and regular therapy) and seeing my sister go through the same thing brought so much back. I was crying uncontrablly on and off until she was able to come home and all I could do was think about how scared and alone she felt. Even though now she's safe and she has a plan in place to see the therapist and nurse practitioner that I go to, I am still incredibly emotional. I feel like I'm making this all about myself and how I feel about it when she was obviously the one hurting. Feeling this way brings on guilt which in turn makes me feel worse which makes me feel even more guilty. I'm so emotionally drained and sad, but my sister is ready to get back to normal and move forward.

I see my therapist later today so I plan on bringing this all up, but I just need to know if I'm being selfish and making this all about me. I haven't brought my feelings up to my sister because she already feels guilty for worrying us and I don't want to burden her further.
