Sometimes I forget how others can't handle our pain. How they can't "deal" with it. My roomate told me last night to not talk to her about it when I'm craving. I'm glad she told me intsead of abondoning me like others in the past have done.

I think you are very strong and I admire you so much for saying this. It must have been so hard to hear that, but you are looking at it as "I'm glad she told me rather than abandoning me." Regardless of how well you handled that it is still so difficult to not have someone to talk to.

I think sometimes I also wish someone would at least say, "I don't want to talk about this right now," rather than just acting like the problem doesn't exist or that I'm sick and disgusting. I guess it's better for someone to directly acknowledge that they don't wanna talk about it, rather than abandoning you or making you feel shameful. But in a sense it probably still feels like abandonment-- because she's still not there. I'm sorry you are feeling bad. But thank you for sharing your experience. You can always talk here, we will listen.
