For some people, it's easier to make up a story to get attention than to reveal what's honestly going on in their lives, but they still need the attention and kindness and help.

If you called now and got her, you'd probably recognize each other's voices. If it comes out that you're the kid who calls with untrue stories it might be a good way to get down to talking about the need for attention and how you go about getting it. Some people do really terrible things, as in harming people or animals, to get attention. You call a helpline and maybe that's your way of asking for help without hurting anyone.

I wish you the best and hope you can feel comfortable with calling your safe place when you need attention. Don't be too hard on yourself. Eventually you'll come to understand your actions and will be able to get attention in more positive ways. Take care!
