What is something you wish someone would say to you genuinely?
I just want someone to tell me I am not bothering them. I want to be able to ask for help and know that I am not bothering anyone and that no one is annoyed of me. I want someone to tell me that they take me seriously and that they understand. I just don’t want to be a burden.
I will not give up on you and walk out your life. No matter what I hear or how bad I feel that I can’t fix anything, I won’t take that out on you. I won’t give up like every one else did. I may need a break if I am triggered but I promise I’m coming back. I can’t help you, but I can sit with you.
Sometimes all a person can hope for is that one person can do what family, friends, and professionals all failed at. Just be present when possible and come back because I need to have at least one not give up. All I feel since everyone did decide either I can’t be helped or im not worth that amount of time and stress. I am not saying this in any way to blame them because I understand why they need to walk away. Im answering a fantasy question with a request that is just as unlikely
I will be by your side when you can’t find the strength or hope or will to get up again. It is much more difficult since the last 30 attempts at standing strong not only knocked you off your feet, but also into a much deeper rabbit hole 🐇 🕳 🎢. Even the mice are.smart enough to stop ringing the bell if instead a food they get a shock
One more….. “ it’s okay. There is a 7 cup center not far from here. They are having a meeting tonite and the one person who didn’t bail on you in tbe virtual world is having Dbt workshop at 7pm”
Everytime I think of what I want to hear, I immediately realize I wouldn't trust them to stand by what I ask them to say to me. I wouldn't chance it. and I know they believe they could really stand by their word. But there are things that will change their minds and lead to more broken promises.

That makes sense. Like if someone says something nice, even if they are being honest and believe what they're saying, usually your experience has been that there's some point where people change their mind and all of the nice things they said get undermined. So it feels like it's not worth the stress/disappointment to take people seriously if they say kind things.
No matter what happens I will be there for you. lol! Dream on eh?
