Yes, I can relate!

I joined a dysfunctional bipolar support group and quit going. Two of the women I exchanged numbers with there were contacting me non-stop, and acting like I was some kind of therapist. They went so far as to ask me to start a group and lead it?! I've had to step away and put up boundaries, as they both have suicidal ideations. I just gave them the contact info for professionals in our area and told them to make an appointment. I can barely balance my own bs without a lot of added drama.

To thine own self be true,

TnT
