The worst part.

The worst part of this is that you lose friends because no one wants to be around mentally ill people. Time and time again, I've lost friends who've found out how bad it really is. My "friend" told me that he doesn't want to be my friend because "I'm mentally ill and I don't have my shit together". I feel alone. I can never be honest with anyone. I lie. I lie. I lie. I tell people I'm happy. I tell people there's no problem. I am really dying. This is almost as bad as being hospitalized. There is only one answer.

Hah i had a friend tell me the other day it was 'so nice to have someone he could confide in' when telling me something quite personal... must be nice.

Sorry man. Some ppl don't want to deal with mentally ill or ppl that have huge problem. Real life is very hard for the likes of us but I hope at least you won't feel alone here.

The friend issue is always difficult. The desire to talk about your problems and blab about what you're feeling never goes away, but then unburdening yourself never really accomplishes anything either. Also I find that most people become more self absorbed over the years, and those of us who take on that "perpetually troubled" role just become a pain to listen too.

There seems to be this trend on social media of people ' think positive, be positive' attitude. And unfortunately with that its meant some of my friends don't communicate with me anymore because I'm never positive.
Kind of hurts, but kinda realising how alone I really am when so called friends abandoned me at my lowest point. These same people will probably be saying after my death ' I wish she reached out '

pft.

It's honestly made me realize I'm beyond normal help. My problems are bad and I need to die.

This is the most fake, vain and narcissistic pseudo-philosophy, perfect for social media. The spoiled brats who adhere to this also use it to negate their responsibility. Just be positive and detached and let them live out their egomaniacal needs. Absolutely disgusting. Good thing the West is ending.

Totally agree with you there

I have no friends too, everyone hates me because I'm suicidal. I can only count with part of my family.
