I am depressed and shaken up because someone I deeply cared about wrecked my life, betrayed me and got my friends to betray me. She said hurtful things.

And about the text conversation, SHE FU*KING RESPONDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND NOTHING I SAID WAS THREATENING OR RUDE OVER TEXT!

You are making me seem like the bad guy. You don't know how f*cking hard it is to be me! So leave me alone and go find someone else to blame!
I was not blaming you. I was telling you that here in my own location it would not be called PTSD when someone threatens by wishing they could harm someone, and then got caught and punished for it...

I see your location is in portland oregon... thats here in the USA. so heres something that might help you to understand why you might not be getting the responses you are looking for...

many schools in america are having a problem with teen agers going around "wishing" they could harm someone and then they do it. many schools across the USA have had to deal with school shootings, stabbings and other harmful things happening to the students, when investigations are done its discovered that other students have heard the violent one saying they wished someone harm or they wanted to harm someone or were going to harm someone.

because of all this school violence going on American schools now have a zero tolorance rules where students are told they must tell when they hear another student threatening harm and that a threat is any time someone says they wish they could hurt someone, a threat in school is any time someone states they want to hurt someone, and a threat in schools are any time someone says they are going to harm someone.

I know you dont consider what you said a threat but the school did other wise they would not have called your parents and you wouldnt have gotten punished for saying it.

think of it this way what if you were walking down the street and you heard someone say hey see that one over there I wish I could kill her... would you feel safe.... I know I wouldnt feel safe if someone in my town said they wanted to kill me.

my point is this is the world we live in now where schools cant ignore and pass off as nothing when any students (not just you) saying they wish they could kill someone, its just not cool anymore, its scarey because of how many schools have had to deal with school violence.

I saw in another thread you are also attacking another member because they pointed out what you posted and how scarey what you said was and could have been for the other person....

something you need to know about being online.... when you post its normal to get replies from people who dont agree with you just like its normal to get replies from people who do agree with you... thats the risk a person takes by posting online....everyone in the whole world sees what you post and not everyone is going to agree or see things the same way.

heres a suggestion... maybe when you post you can put in your posts that you only want replies from people who see things exactly the way you do, only want replies from people who will agree 100% with you.

with out letting people know what kinds of replies you want that leaves the whole world in replying their own points of view and sometimes their replies may not agree with you.
Thanks for this!
