Going Crazy started this conversation

I just wanted to know do any of you feel like you have a diease?  maybe I'm paranoid but friends stopped calling, I don't see anyone anymore.

I guess they think I'll ask for money, it's just a strange feeling.

I understand exactly what you mean. The only time my friends talk to me is when I call them. I feel alienated and alone. I have moments of depression but my son does bring me out of them. I hope things get better for you.

I have the disease I own it, its called reality at times, and  NO ONE shoud have to experience..  it but we all  have or will at some point in life...feeling ALONE...  There are friends,   and then there are aquaintances, and there  those people I call, "when your fun I wanna be there" friends..  Some people, honestly, I think just feel helpless, when they cant help you, I don't they stop really caring, although it does feel that way at times...

by the way "going crazy,  >     arrived and will probably be here for longer that I like....  but thats ok, because crazy or not, I know my heart, and God knows my heart , and yes I can  say that,  because its for me,not to lure someone.  anyway,

If there your friends, you know the ones who know everything about you, and love you anyway... friends. So what if you ask for money, if they are freinds, for  they   probably  already know, your hurting money wise,  if they could help you they would..

Then are those that just want to be hang around, when all is wonderful, all the time,  and lets just hang out on a pink cloud  kind of friend,, I think they are the ones that have lost touch with reality.. 

 With all of my heart  I believe sometimes, they just feel hopeless to you hurts and needs, and they have said every thing they can think of to confort you.  and yet, sometimes, we still bring up our forever money issues, and needing  money for "in my case teeth implants, some one else rent,  it could be anything, and if you feel as though you are in a crisis, your going to repeat it..  well I do, I don't mean to at times, but its very easy to be self absorbed, when you feel your  world is crumling, and you cant seem to stop it,  whether friends like it or not, if they have choesn to have you as a 'real friend' they usually know what your wrapped with, and if your wrapped tight.. sorry..  long day..  Friends,   and honestly most of us,  if  were honest, only have  oh  maybe 5,  if your really blessed, or maybe its me, and every body else has  more..of  the true good friends...

To me a friend is, as I mentioned earlier  is for one,  they pretty much know what blocks you've been around, and know  most all there is to know about you , and love ya anyway,  think that most people,  when you open up and they the hidden you, would go, YOU WHAT?    and start quietly judgeing you.    Because my friend, and at this point actually your a aquaintance, barely, but all of us, and I mean ALL of Us, have things in our past, maybe in our present,  that we are not thrilled that are there, but its a fact of life.. maybe being poor,  and with out money all the time.  I don't know.  Personally, I hate to say it, but I have been a open book for many years,  people will be drawn to you,  are repelled to you,  by your honesy, but those skeltons have a way, of coming out of the closet when you least expect them to... So  I just answer people honestly, when asked about almost anything. 

I don't thing your paranoid, I think you are just living in reality... bummer, had to happen sometime...  I'm trying to keep it lite.  because it is a horrible feeling when you think even your friends, have turned a deaf ear..

Give them space, even good friends need space, I almost can guarntee you, almost,  we all know there no real guanatees, but almost.....that if they are your real  friends, you may have smothered them, with your trials and issues and having no money,  they just need some air.. they will be back. and if they don't come back, and never answer you when you call or phone  you again....  YOU HAVE LOST NO ONE, they were never friends sorry....  I don't know if I helped or made it worse...  I hope I helped.  if you need clarification feel free to message me....

Make it the best day you can, then call it that, thats all any of us can do, is our best, when thats not good  enough---OH WELL... 

I have  been where are too many times,  thats why I had to respond...

Be patient,  and try to imagine if the situation was reversed, could you have some one as a friend and step back just for a time,  so you could be a better friend and not so worn out...

Thanks for your time....

Alove, but never alone..........Ponder

God bless you....and may your need be met quickly and your friends be true....

oh you mean the disease called poverty... yeah we all got it, its like living in a leper colony. No one calls, comes over, or whatever, God forbid it should be contagious! I like to think of us as a private gated community of elitists - only the chosen few are allowed in and we intimidate the others.

Besides, I've seen NORMAL, I'll take crazy anyday - we're a lot more fun!

 

BTW... Ekika does give some wonderful tips... try checking out the "normals" in their regular habitat...

Venture out yourself.  Try making new friends.  And,  do not ask your new friends for money, that could be a real turn off.

You could find friends by joining:  (1) meetup groups in your community (go online to find out about these in your community, they have some where 'moms get together', 'people who share interests in certain activities', etc) (2) join a book club at your library or book store (3) local church or synagogue (4) attend classes at community college (5) courses/activities offered by your chamber of commerce

The above are just a few.

Best wishes,
