I have BPD and constant suicidal ideation, and have often wished someone would give me permission to do it.
Then I think if they gave it, I'd cuss them out and stay to stick it to them. I think everyone hates me until they say something nice, then 10 minutes later I'll think of how they didn't mean it and they really still hate me.
Im convinced 90% of the users on this site already have me blocked.
I was 8 years old living in Michigan with my aunt. She went to church heavy ( traded one addiction for another). I was the new cute kid that all the teenage girls wanted babysit.
One of favs (can't remember her name) convinced my aunt to let me spend the day with her. Her and her mom came to pick me up and the girl insisted i sit on her lap. I felt so damned loved and special. On the ride back, of course i asked if i could sit on her lap. She said, "no get in the back".
I was crushed and it was that moment that i started to believe I'm only tolerable for a short period of time.
30 years later, i still suffer from that anxiety if i find myself feeling close to someone. They'll leave me soon. So what do i do, - i push them away. Or get ghost on them because they can't REALLY still like me.
It can make for lonely crazy existence.
