I just need an ear occassionally to vent. I'm using benzos, sleeping pills and wine to just send my body into a coma to stop all the sadness. I feel as though I don't have any friends or people are sick of listenign to me anyway.

Thanks Julie, I just feel like people are malicious and I don't trust anybody.

I hate feeling like this, but I have been walked over. I'm not the best at defending myself without looking like a stressed out psycho.

Sometimes I feel like a tea kettle, I am venting more than I should. Steam comming out of my ears. Loll

You are not alone when It comes to friends/family backing off. It isn't our illness but the chronic part of it that wares them down. I know it gets to me.. They feel helpless and can't fix us. So they get overwhelmed.

You'll always find someone willing to talk, on this site. Post as often as you need to.
