Paranoia and People (and Facebook)

Postby Hevski » Thu Apr 25, 2013 12:55 pm

I feel like I'm upsetting everyone I know at the moment.. I wish I could just be away from everyone.. Like some FB friend has come out with a statement and I feel like its about me, but I don't know for sure..
I feel like I want to be there for people, but I can't.. I feel toxic and that they're toxic.. And I just want to distance myself. How can I help and be there for others when I can't help myself.. "would be nice to be asked how i/shaun is every now and then....well screw you, don't come running when you get used YET AGAIN.....i really don't wanna know this time okay!!?" This is what she said, but she has hundreds of friends, and I live miles and miles away from her, I'm not her best friend. I think it's about her other friend Kate to be honest, but you never know. If it is about me, I'm getting a lot of $#%^ like this at the moment and anymore it's just going to send me over..
I've always been supportive and friendly to people, but I don't know..

*hugs* I know the feeling. Chances are, it has nothing to do with you, and even if it does, shame on your friend for not bringing the problem to you directly. I don't understand why people feel the need to post stuff like that on FB when it would obviously be better as a personal message/text/e-mail/whatever. Some people thrive on drama and attention, I guess. :roll: I'm sorry you're going through this!

i'm SO familiar with this...so what i pay attention to are the comments that follow. are there any that might give you a greater perspective on who this might be? was there anything at all that happened in the last few days that would make you think it was you? circumstances? FB posts are typically immediate reactions to situations, so, if you would have literally just gotten off of the phone talking to her/texting/etc, then it would make sense, if not...the arrow points elsewhere.

It wasn't about me, well she said it wasn't.. She wouldn't say who it was about though.. I also hate those vague statuses, but I have done them myself.. I used to be friends with an ex work-colleague and my god, she did them all the time, really pissed me off. They weren't about me or anything, I flipped one time and told her to name names and stop beating around the bush! :lol:

And no, she told me about the problems with her partner a while back.. I suppose with everything going on at the moment I was a little sensitive.. People commenting below were just offering support and hugs.. She has a lot of friends, but I still think it was perhaps aimed at her friend Kate, like I mentioned.. She should have just told them though, like you say..
