My friend is driving me crazy. I don't know what to do. She says she wants to help me but she doesn't. She just doesn't understand or something. Since I'm hurting so much I whine sometimes when I'm upset. I guess that really bugs her. She made a comment today about how I do that all the time and she doesn't like it. I said she does it too but she said she has good reason and mine is all the time. She really hurt my feelings. She whines when she has cramps. I whine because I'm recovering from being raped. But it's like she forgets or something. Plus she does other things that bug me. She just does or says little things that are kinda controlling. I don't know what to do. Why can't she just be nicer and stop telling me what to do!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so upset right now and i have no one to talk to. I want someone to talk to.
Hi Marissa, I'm here if you need me. A good friend should let you whine....my gosh, you're dealing with A LOT!!! But if she hasn't been through that (and I wish that on no one!) she wouldn't get it. Do what you need to do to get through this and if that means not doing what she wants you to do then so be it. You need to take care of you right now, you're the priority. Hope you're feeling better! *hugs*

Lol! That was my Monday, too. Hmmm... I wonder if it was astrological. Lol! :-p I used to send my friend the stuff I found out about PTSD. (I cut and pasted one of the emails into my journal. It's the entry about Sidran and PTSD Alliance on Sunday, June 24.) I dunno if that would help or not. In the end, it didn't help me. :-/ I wish I had something happy to say about it... It is nice to come here and all of us, no matter what we got PTSD from, do totally get what it is like. That's really nice, to have a place where people get it and all want the same thing - to get better. It's nice to have that kind of understanding and love out there. :)
