Over the years I stopped letting people in "my world". I'm terrified to have friends. Every friend I ever had is now dead. 5 vehicle accidents, 2 murdered, 3 natural causes and 11 suicides. My last mental health person asked "what do you do to these people?" It made me even feel like maybe I am cursed. Like I was meant to be alone forever. Maybe I'm just the poster child for bad influence. Can that really be true? Can't help but feel maybe it is my fault. Anyone else ever hear something so often you start to believe it??

Hi. I’m Andy.

Firstly. I don’t know whether your mental health carer was trying to make a funny? Or not? But it was highly inappropriate. And I would have tore them a new one. That’s me.

It’s hard, for what ever reason when we self isolate. You’re not cursed my friend. These terrible things unfortunately, would have happened, if you knew them or not. I promise you that. It’s true that we can start to believe things if we hear it enough times. But turn it around and I’ll say to you that you are a good, decent person with a big heart. So start to believe that from now ok. Start to think about letting maybe one person into your life. Take it slow. Don’t be afraid of opening your life up to people. Start to do things that make you feel good. New interests were you can meet new potential friends. Make you the priority. You’re number one. Be kind to yourself. Here if you need an ear.

Take good care of yourself.

Wow, I am so very sorry! I think a lot of people are on edge and even severely depressed right now with all the negative news. I am sorry for your loss, and mourn with you. I can't believe any counselor would say that, even in jest, that's awful. I'd be looking for another one. Maybe it's where you live? Are you in a dangerous area? Maybe move for a fresh start? You are not cursed, nor are you at fault or a curse to anyone. Never believe such bad things about yourself, you are a treasure, loved and needed by those around you. Speak positive truths to counteract negative things said to you or that you think. Breathe in deep peace and out worry, moving your hands to have a physical movement that makes it feel more solid. Be kind to yourself, as you would to someone you love. <3
