Yeah everything sucks but true it would be boring. @tyme
My cousin has reached out to me in regards to my letter. I’m a bit upset about it to be honest. Looks like I won’t be talking to her for a bit. I can’t believe she says I can’t talk about a negative demeanor I’m literally depressed what does she expect. I don’t even know how to respond to her. I didn’t even feel I’ve been using her though.
Hey my week has been good, glad though it’s the week end.
Thank you for your letter and I hope you had a good day and didn’t get too wet with the rain.
In regards to your letter,
for clarification, I am not comfortable with any conversations about your mental health. I am setting boundaries I need, to feel comfortable with you. They are my personal boundaries.
I feel you have taken advantage of my time and my availability and my kind nature.
Text and conversation I like:
-positive topics
-positive updates on your life
Text and conversations I find impactful:
-Anything mental health(self-harm, suicide, depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts.)
-excessive complaining about uni, family, friends.
-general negative demeanour
I still value your company and I want you a part of my life but I don’t know what our friendship would look like without the mental health issues.
I am available on Fridays between 5:00-5:30pm and this is when I can answer texts from you that were sent earlier in the week or texts on Friday or take your call.
