The Samaritan said this to me but idk how to take it?
TW// self harm and suicide
They were also trying to know waaaaaaay to much about me. I said about my book and he wanted the name and I said that it had my name on it and he still wanted to know and then I said about something else I do through FB and he wanted the group…am I thinking to much into it?

Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

Thank you for sharing this with us. It sounds like this was a really invasive and uncomfortable chat, that must have felt really tough especially coming from someone who you were looking for support from. You're feelings are completely valid in this and I don't think you are thinking too much in to it. I just wanted to check in with how you are feeling today?
@Lily i don’t know why I seemed so surprised to hear it, all professionals have done really is make things worse and screw me over so I think I just need to not reach out for help anymore
that doesn’t sit right with me either, and you’re not overthinking it. saying something like “you are a troubled girl” feels really dismissive and kind of stigmatising!! you were opening up about really serious, painful stuff, and you deserved compassion, not a label like that - if it’s worth anything, i don’t at all think you’re a troubled girl, you’re just a human who has been through a LOT in life that no one should ever have to experience who is struggling and just needs, and very much deserves, the right support, who is doing really well to manage everything going on too!
it also makes total sense that you’d feel uneasy about the personal questions, especially when you’d already set boundaries. wanting your full name, your book, your fb group, that’s a lot, and it’s okay to feel weird about it. you are allowed to protect your space, especially when you’re already feeling vulnerable.
you did nothing wrong by reaching out or by sharing your feelings. i’m really sorry you didn’t get the support you deserved as you deserve to be listened to, not judged or made to feel uncomfortable.
we’re always here for you
