Soldato
I went round to see my only friend last, wish I hadn't, come home feeling like ****, he knows I have some issues going on that really bother me, being a 32 years old, living with my parents still, never been in a relationship, I have a large nose and all he done last night was have a dig at me all night, I can take a joke but the way he was saying these things felt like personal attacks, really ******* hurt me.
He's the only 'real' friend I have, the others are just FB acquaintances, but **** it when you have friends like that I guess its better being alone.
I've not really been in here for a while, Christmas is family time and I've been trying to be more positive and active. Of my head meds, still dealing with BPD but left all the Facebook support groups, there are some really miserable people out there looking for validation for acting like **** and people giving it to make themselves feel better. Give proper advice and you get slammed for it. Goodbye FB support groups. Just need to be even more active and get more weight lost, make me feel happy. Still down about my losing my car before Xmas though, need to find another.
Having just read your long post then your update I can say that YES, you were dealt a **** hand, on the positive side it is being dealt with. You're being treated, feeling better and making your Grandad proud by sticking around, supporting your nan and taking action to improve your life.
Word of advice going forward, don't wait for the hospital ever, a day after they said they'd be in touch, phone them, keep phoning them.
As for your friend, do you know why people do that? It's because to those looking in he is doing ok but looking out he's seeing all his insecurities and issues, he's a mess and putting others down makes them feel better. Never let anyone putting you down make you feel bad, pity them for being so low they feel the need to do it. Either point this out to him or just drop the friendship. There are more genuine and honest people out there to make friends with.
