I hate when you're the therapy friend so everyone takes advantage of you but never give you help when you ask for it šŸ„ŗ

      I feel you there. Iā€™m always the friend people go to for advice or when they need help because they know Iā€™ll be there. For me it became so exhausting trying to take care of everyone else when I should have been trying to take care of myself. Itā€™s a really hard trait to unlearn but just know you deserve to be cared for too. Iā€™ve been trying to learn to set boundaries with those people in my life and to find the people that genuinely want to listen to what I have to say and will support me as well. Itā€™s hard to find people like that but theyā€™re out there even if you just find 1 or 2 of them. It just truly showed me who was gonna be there for me when shit went bad and sadly there wasnā€™t many people. But I couldnā€™t be more thankful for the ones that stayed and helped me through stuff. Just remember you deserve to have someone listen to you too. Iā€™m always here ā¤ļø

      I've been in the same boat unfortunately and I would try to talk it out but sometimes I would just have to leave them or give myself space from them

        @Bre19 I know, it's really bad. I lost a friend over it once. She was always talking to me about her petty family dramas and how her mum wanted her to do the dishes but she couldn't be bothered and they had an argument... I've literally had my mum try to drag me out of the house but she would always say "I can't deal with your stuff, talk to someone else" it just really sucks and hurts when all you do is give you time to people and all they can repay you with is that... I'm kind of glad we're not friends anymore, looking back on the friendship, she was pretty toxic šŸ˜…

      Ik itā€™s easier said then done, but try putting your foot down or when you want to vent, feel ignored still, tell then how you feel. That will help give you the answers of who is true to you.
