Me: *panical and crying*
Her: „instantly getting louder and complaining“
Sometimes all I wish for is someone sitting down with me, saying: „I have an open ear. You want to talk about something? I will listen. If not, let’s get some ice cream. Everything’s gonna be okay.“
Sentences I heard from her and my mom during my darkest and most difficult times when I was looking for a helping hand:
Her: „I‘m gonna get a stroke because of you.“
Mom: „I’m gonna get a heart attack because of you.“
I will try to keep it to myself, I’m sorry…
The problem is that I already gave up and now i‘m waiting for the perfect time to leave.
Me: *gets up in the middle of the night and sits down crying in the living room*
Her: *gets up to pee, realizes me and goes back to sleep*
Me: *begs 2x for a few more minutes quality time and really enjoys it*
Her: *gets annoyed* If I say I want to go shower simply say „Alright“ and let me go.
She sleeps so peacefully while I’m falling apart and be overthinking my suicide.

All I want is some comforting cuddles…
I‘m just not a happy person. And I’m afraid I will never be.
What if it’s never getting better? What if I‘ll always feel this way?
