Well, that person should actively try to understand why is it so many friends stay away instead of constantly accusing and putting the blame on others.
Why do I get the impression that you're a s***y friend too? All you're doing is bashing someome who isn't here to defend themselves just so you can be told it's okay to abandon her by complete strangers online
This generation claims to be so much more enlightened and accepting of mental illness, bu5 it really isn't when it comes to individuals. It's all about 'movements' and online activism. Post a suicide hotline number on Facebook and that's your 'good deed', while you turn your back on your sister or daughter struggling with mental illness. All these 'awareness' days, weeks and months do nothing but result in memes being shared. Support my a**
You remind me of her, actually. Me. Me. Me. My problems.
What about me? Did you ever stop and consider how I felt when you called me an idiot? Called me stupid? Told me how annoyed you are by me? Insulted my professional knowledge? Accused me of imaginary things? Didn't answer my text or calls for days? Called me a traitor for even the simplest things like not sending you my notes on time? Snapped at me because I told you I'm worried about this and that? I've apologized to you countless times, I've swallowed my anger when you snapped, I didn't say anything when you bailed on my birthday, and yet you never even once apologized for anything.
If your idea of helping people with mental illness involves close ones putting up with verbal abuse, then please understand why close ones might tire of it and leave.

Relax. I've already ghosted her.
Why do you care so much? If this thread disturbs you, you are free to not respond.

Yep, I'm bashing her. This was the last straw that broke the camel's back and I don't care if I'm viewed as a ****ty friend now. I'm no longer one.

I think you clearly have issues too. You'd already nade your mind up about ditching her anyway, but you just want validation here. I'd love to hear her side of the story. You're just here to complain

I find it interesting how you NEVER ONCE considered my side of the pain. You're defending her without knowing her.
Maybe you deserve a friend like her.
Borderline with Bipolar. I wonder who will last longer.
You ghosted her...how lovely. The coward's way out.
I get it Cat Lady.
You want normal friends with minimal mental issues who will bear through your mental illness and then when they can no longer, you'll snap and accuse them of being selfish.
Why don't you befriend others with Bipolar Disorder? So you can better understand yourself and see what others have to go through.
I did ghost her.
Do you know why?
Because when I told her she hurt me with some words, she aggressively dismissed me.
I'm done apologizing and correcting my wrongs while she sits pointing fingers at me.
I'm happy I ghosted her. I feel a boulder off my shoulders. What a relief!
I no longer have to deal with her verbal attacks and mood swings.
But maybe you should find a friend with a personality disorder and see how much you, who suffer from Bipolar, will put up with it.
I don't have bipolar. I was misdiagnosed. You seem like you lack maturity, as you're practically gloating about ghosting someone. I would love to hear her side of the story.
