I surely do not know who you are... never will really know, only you will really know you, but it sounds like you give away your power. I hope you are doing therapy and not just showing up and just making a bitch session. I hope you have a therapist that does not hook you also.

RICHARD

No richarddw, not making a bitch session as you say. Not in therapy because no money to be there. Just venting a bit. Isn't this suppose to be someplace to be able to do that? You better be careful the words you use to reply here. Someone that is sensetive can take what you say the wrong way!

Lav, any words can be taken the wrong way. Ten people hear the same thing at least three will hear something different. Venting is okay anywhere. But venting will not change ones attitude and behavior, which are necessary to bring into ones life good stuff that will balance out the misery... make chemical imbalance depression and anxiety comfortably livable: not just survive but actually live. I am not sure which words you are referring to that I should be careful of. Peoples' sensory apparatus work fine to some degree. It is when people take things personally that I think you are referring to. Is that the case Lav?

RICHARD

Sorry to cut in. But is really going on? Anyone?

Do not have to reply. I should just read the replies better.lol I'll get it....no worries....lol:)

Everyone is selfish in this generation, so yes, your so called friends probably don't know the REAL you and don't take the time to get to know you. It's sad, but the state we live in. Keep writing and venting here as I plan on doing.

thats why i will never trust anyone other than phoebe and hannah theyre the only 2 people i trust

I do this a lot myself. I just feel better trusting people than thinking the worst of them.

I'm sorry your "friends" have hurt you but will tell you the same thing I said when I had this discussion with my daughter a few days ago.
When you chose your friends make sure you don't try to see them as someone they aren't and can't be. Really look at what they say and do then decide what level of friendship your going to give them.
Some people don't have what it takes to be friends, they are to self centered and wrapped up in their own drama to care about you and it's usualy pretty clear who these people are if you just listen to what they say for even a short time.
Then there are people who might really care but their basic life is so fucked up they can't give you what you need, your decision then is do you care enough about them to be a friend even when you know you'r not likely to get much back in return?
They say most of us are lucky if we find one or two REAL friends during the course of our lives. Studies have shown that having more then those two real friends does not improve the quality of your life in any measurable way but not having them does influence your mental and phsycial health. So go for quality and leave the quantity for those who are not up to the levels of commitment being a friend takes.

I've heard if you have one true friend and one true love you are truly blessed! I think I'm half way there! I have serious trust issues that won't ever go away. True friend?? I'm working on it...think I have one but they live so far away (12-13 hours drive) and they are in their own hell. I want so hard to visit but they say they are not ready to have company. I sure I can trust them they have never given me reason to doubt them.

Hello lav you talking IRL or on DS?

I always want to trust everyone. I am such a sucker for anyone who will just listen... but I do try to hold my ground......
