I agree with the above posters. Sometimes I want someone to listen and sometimes I want to be distracted. What I would request is continuing to reach out to me even when I say I don't want to do anything with anyone, not the same day though. I know that when I haven't contacted anyone for a few days, my parents call me, usually because I've ignored their emails. If I don't pick-up, my mother, who has a key to my (our) condo, will come by and check on me. Even though it can feel intrusive sometimes, it's nice to know she cares, and I wouldn't ask her to stop doing it.
