Old issues cropping up

Post Reply New Topic

Ok so at school I was psychologically bullied by my two "best friends" from about the age of 4. I grew up thinking that that was how normal people behaved. They twisted everything around on me, manipulated me, confused me and just generally did all sorts of horrible passive agressive stuff that I knew was horrible but could never quite explain to adults without sounding paranoid because I didnt really understand it well enough myself at the time and because they were that good.

Well now I live with a girl who is basically the same person and it was ok until we fell out and now she's passive agressive, she's manipulative and to an extent I am aware of it but I also know that theres stuff I'm not aware of because I just dont understand how to react to people who are like that.

Whatever I do she seems to come off looking best and theres so much stuff she does that could just be normal or could be passive aggressive and aimed at me that I really am becoming paranoid.

I dont think I can take this for another 5 months

that is so awful, is there a counselling service u can talk too or someone u trust?

and what u mean another 5 months? what happens then?

In five months she finishes university and moves out (hooray)

I applied for counselling in October and have my first session in a couple of weeks but I've had counselling before and I haven't had much luck with it.

I have asked her not to say things like "oh go and cut your arms some more" until after my counselling starts (seeing as she's studying to be a youth worker and two days before she said that to me I told her I'd made the huge decision to stop self-harming)

But that was mostly just to show her that it didn't get to me.

some youth worker she'll make..... that is a horrible thing to say.

i pity the kids she'll end up with if she tries the s%$t with them that she tried with you. It is great that u are showing her that u are not falling for her BS.
