Illness

Posted in Group: 

I have no friends. My best friend wont make time for me which hurts really bad. But I try not to care about it anymore bc it's been almost a yr. If she only knew how much I needed her she would make time for me. I know she's in school and working a lot but it makes me feel like I'm not important to her when she continually does not call or even txt or try to hang out w me. I've been having strong urges to self injure today. I called my girlfriend but she must be asleep. We had a small disagreement last night and I feel bad about it. I know she would get extremely upset if I self injured bc the last time I did she had a panic attack and I don't want to do that to her. She is coming to visit in about 3 weeks and I'm excited about that. Really exciteid bc it will be the first time we will meet. I guess I just needed to get my thoughts/feelings out to someone who will understand. But I feel like nothing will relieve this pain other than the one thing I shouldn't do and I know is not healthy. I feel like if the people in my life would just be ok w me doing it I could be happy. Now I know that probably not true but it's just not that big of a deal to me. If I want to cope that way why should anyone stop me. You might say, you could hurt yourself more than you intended. To which I would say, why is that a bad thing? If I died tomorrow I would be ok with it. I'm not saying I have a plan to kill myself, I'm saying if I was diagnosed with a terminal illness I would feel relieved. I suposed i'm severely depressed bc a healthy person doesn't feel that way. I haven't told anyone really that I want to become sick and I feel bad bc there are ppl who are sick who don't want to be and here I am asking for God to make me sick but if I could trade places with them I would...

Maybe you should consider telling your friend how much you need her and be honest. It's not easy but it's worth it.

I know how it is not need your best friend and not have them. I live with mine and we barely see each other and when she's home she prefers her video games. I know she's busy and I know when she comes home she just wants to relax but it doesn't mean I don't need her any less. Telling her I need her from time to time is the hard but when I do and we finally get a chance to talk I feel better.

I am having the same situation happening to me. Whenever I have the urge to self-injure I call somebody. I don't tell them what I want to do but I just call to get my mind off of it. It helps me out a lot to be distracted at times like that. It would be nice to talk to my friend too but she is too wrapped up in her boyfriend to care about anyone else. I hope you work things out with your friend because it seems that you really need her right now.
