I was at the state fair all day today having a good old time. But when I came home I found out that my younger brother was in a accident. He hit a coyote with his Harley.(freak accident I know but its true) He's okay with a few broken bones and road rash. But I still feel guilt for some reason. I know that its not like I could have changed a thing but I just feel terrible.

You feel guilty because while you was out having fun at the fair your brother got hurt and you wasn't there for him. Oh worse yet he might have wanted to go with you and you didn't want him to. Or he might have wanted you to go with him and you didn't want to. If anything thing I would say it was the first one. Be thank full that he is alive. I don't think he is going to hold anything against you. Just try to relax and chill out a little.

It is because you care about your brother and in a way feel like if you were around the accident wouldn't of happened.
You feel out of control. Your feelings of guilt are something you can control. So, you feel it you are in control - if you feel comfortable then in a way you betray him by going to the fair.
You will find peace- give it time

Your guilt is very normal although you couldn't change this accident you feel like you just could of. But let me tell you that It isn't you.All you can do is just be there for him and show him how much you care about him and tell him that you love him.The guilt will soon go away.

Honey you shouldn't feel guilty. It wasn't your fault, you didn't know it was going to happen. It would have happened anyway. Things happen that we have no control over. Hope he gets well soon. God Bless you for loving your brother so much. I feel bad for him. Tell him i said get well soon.

Do you have a close friend or family member you could tell your feelings to?? Talk to them about it. It's not your fault, sweetie. You couldn't have done a thing to stop what happened.
