Toxic friendships anyone?...

[Loveiskind12]

Has anybody ever went through emotional abuse from there friend ...like when they are mad at you for something small and ignore you for days.. like won't answer your calls or texts ... Then just stay mad ...like they are in high school or something ... Like get mad at the smallest thing ... And you feel like you just can't win with them .. like it's sucking you dry everytime and you think you did something major cause of the way they are acting but it's nothing really .. like they have certain conditions for you to obtain to... So emotionally overwhelming.

Hi this is Shnookie. I have a friend who at times can be very challenging. She doesn’t always understand my mental health issues and has called me “hypersensitive” even though I explain to her that part of my ADHD makes me very sensitive at times. She also has an ongoing drinking problem

and can be a nasty 🤢 drunk I know alcoholism is an illness but she is in denial that she is an alcoholic and has issues going to AA. However she has a supportive side and was there 4 me when my mom died from pancreatic cancer. She said to me if U want U could find a $10-$12 an hour job.

I am looking for a job but live in

Los Angeles, CA and am going to need to move out of my Beverly Hills apt. to a cheaper place. My cousin helps me out and I have a weekend job but this will

Not be enough. I feel discomfort and that she can be bossy. I’m here 4 U

Hugs 🤗 S

yeah me got a friend known him 25 year or so but sometime he winds me up about things that should just never get brought up.

I'm sorry ... It's just a terrible feeling to even have to endure..my stomach still hurts from yesterday .. to be thrown around like it's nothing is not okay. One day I'm going to have the strength to pull through and not let things like this bother me. Maybe even let people go that don't appreciate me too. I'm tired of it ..I really am. Grrrrr! I've really had enough!!! I hope your friend doesn't do that to you anymore either!

It just gives me so much anxiety, my stomach has been in knots the past couple days .. I just can't shake it.. I hate it so much.. I didn't even do anything wrong this time.

Oh yes, it's called gaslighting, and it doesn't just happen between married couples. That person is not a friend, he or she is bringing you down so they can look big. They are your 'Friend' all the time it suits them, and when you no longer fit the bill- they're off!

That is not a true friend.

I am sure that you can find better friends than this one.

Cheers, Midori
