I don’t think she wants a way out I swear
And her friend says I don’t care and got pissed because I told her she needed help.
I mean ... like I said it depends on how it ebbs and flows and shit. I know I can be in a deep slump for 5-6 days and come out of it for 2-3 months
For context: a girl got obsessed with me just because we talked a lot, and I wanted out of that “contract”
She was already depressed and I tried to help
She clung on to me
Because I tried to help
Because I cared
Tbh that sounds more borderline manipulation
I don’t even know
like she’d get real sad if I told her I wouldn’t text her for a while because I was doing something
It’s extremely fucked for me to say, as her friend told me, but she is fucked in the head.
Any professional is going to tell you that someone cant be your sole happiness and you've gotta find something else to do.
Even if it's just lie in bed and hide for a bit
Her friend is pissed and says that I should just quit since I can’t seem to help
Tell her to get whiskey drunk and listen to 70s country western?
That’s my coping mechanism
“I don’t choose to be this way”
That's what I do, I figure it's good as anything
Sure is
Sounds like she grew dependant and thats bad and its not wrong for you to feel exhausted by having to try and help the most you can do is listen and suggest help whatever medium they decide to use is up to them
@[LA] Zoomer Medi/k/ I have a cousin that’s the same way. He did some dumb shit and was an absolute shitbag to his ex who wants absolutely nothing to do with him and he’s obsessed with her, like creepy stalker obsessed. And he says all the time he wants to kill himself, and I talked to him when no one else would and he told me everything, and as much as I tried to help him, he never helped himself and just kept making himself depressed about it by looking at the 1500+ pictures of her on his phone. When someone constantly talks about it, it’s done for attention and nothing else.
It’s aggravating as shit
“I don’t choose to be like this”
“I don’t wanna be like this”
“Nothing can help”
“No-one cares”
“My mind won’t accept that anyone can care”
Like Jesus fuck I wouldn’t be helping constantly if I didn’t care
Seriously. And not to be overly sexist but when A chick does this it is absolutely about attention. And nothing more. Your best bet is to block her for a solid week and see if that doesnt get her moving on to the next victim. These kinda chicks need reinforcement of the behavior or they find the nearest person to start the same bs with. Total block, phone, FB, no in person, nada.
Zoomer, there comes a time that you just have to walk away and let them deal with it, as shitty as that sounds. You can talk until you’re blue in the face, but if they don’t want to stop doing that because they’ve learned it gets them the attention they want, there’s nothing you can do to help them if they don’t want to help themselves, no matter how hard you try. She wants attention. Point blank.
Thanks guys.
“if i don't let them in then maybe me dying wont affect them that much. cus they'll start to care less n if i have no one to care ab me then ill have even less of a purpose.”
Her response to me telling her to let a therapist and her family in.
Sure as hell sounds like she just wants a reason to die.
“you think i wanted it to come to this? cus i didn't but i really have no choice. “
Other people care and can get her the appropriate care. Push that and you may have to tell someone.
Told her mother.
Good call.
That was the best thing you could have done honestly.
Mental health is complex and there needs to be a support system of people.
