Y r people so inconsiderate?

I have a 'friend' that is so inconsiderate that they r just stupid. I have just been diagnosed with sleep apnea. I told my 'friend' they said I quit breathing 23 tims n an hour. Now this 'friend' knows I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety so y would they only hear I stopped breathing 23 times n an hour. Nothing else seems like it was heard. The 'friend' has told others about the diagnosis who told the 'friend' they know 2 people that died n their sleep with this. It seems like this 'friend' is just negative about everything. I wish they would just leave me alone. I would miss them but I'd get ova it sooner or later. 😔😔

Do anybody know anything happy?

You're right Bluetj, in that if these so called friends left you alone, you would get over it

sooner or later. It's not so much that they are inconsiderate, they just speak without

thinking first. They don't even have a clue how the mind of a person with depression and

anxiety processes what they hear. Surround yourself with positive people. You don't

necessarily have to give up your friends, just don't share any information about your health

issues. :) xx

Thx, everything u said is correct. I have distanced my self from this person but I get off guard some times & I, too, say things without thinkn. I will definitely go back to tryn 2 b careful wat I say.

You have answered your own question! I have been in a similar situation a couple of times, realised a friendship was toxic and basically ( but not literally) walked away.

You will feel angst initially but then you'll feel like a weight has been lifted when you don't have to worry what you told anyone. We mustn't be governed by what people see as advice or criticism if it hurts. Chose your friends wisely. I have too made that mistake, people always have their own agenda.
