I just feel invisible, i try my hardest to be positive and upbeat but im over worked and overtired, i feel like im walked all over not taken seriously. My family can be so happy to others but when its just me im ignored. Im so sad with life and i dont know what to do anymore
Hey, I know you just commented on my post ( I just read it and it has shown me some blue sky, thank you ) I know this feeling and for me it's completely down to them not understanding how difficult everyday life can be with a mental illness. When you're trying to be positive they don't know how difficult that is and they are just relieved that you seem great! So when you are feeling low they go back to ignoring you because they don't understand why you might be feeling down for no apparent reason. Again, this is only from what I've experienced but I hope that you can relate to some of this. For me, I've tried to be honest - tell them how I'm feeling and why I'm feeling a certain way. Happy or sad, make them understand that they are your feelings and they should listen and be there for you. You're not invisible - you helped me out today
They know and when people are around they pretend to care. They know im suicidal and they know im bipolar and on a depressive phase, they just choose to test me
Sorry to hear that you're having such a hard time. Families aren't always the best source of support and sometimes it's best to distance ourselves from our families and to look elsewhere for other sources of support.
Uh huh. A big one for me is employers. They just don't give a toss. You're immediate manager and surrounding colleagues may care but the company as a whole does not. I had issues with that in my last job and it was one of the reasons I left. They just don't listen and I was just a number to them. My morale was in the absolute toilet most days. And I know there's even worse companies out there, that's the scary part.
I've cared about lots of people who didn't care back. And yes, it hurts when that happens. This seems to be the way life is now. It seems more people are selfish than not.
