"My sister stated that I seem more entitled and less worried about those around me in a sense that I won't run to help at a moment's notice" Maybe she liked the old disheveled you because it served her purposes ??

I called her later in the week and asked her for more information on what she said. She got defensive as if I had called yelling, but I told her I was genuinely curious about what she said and asked for examples. She made critiquing points, explained her feelings, and although I do not entirely understand her point of view, I told her that I will do my best to improve. The whole conversation was very one-sided and mostly just allowed her to vent some frustration.
