Even my ex boyfriend who I’m good friends with now called me but my own family can’t bother to call. And no I didn’t call them because it’s always me who has to initiate any conversation or anything, otherwise I wouldn’t hear from them for months on end
I'm so sorry. I can commiserate right now. I am having a lot of SI thoughts. I am feeling exactly the same about my sister. I called her crying, left a message I was depressed, PLEASE call me and all she did was texted back all the stuff she was so busy with she couldn't call me. I mean, really, she couldn't skip tae kwon do ONE week to talk to me? Yesterday, all I got were Happy Thanksgiving texts from my sisters, my mom, my aunts. Only my 91 year old grandmother called to wish me a happy Thanksgiving, and she was the one person I didn't expect to hear from what with her age and health problems. It did hearten me a little at least though I don't unload stuff about my depression to my grandmother, she's been through too much in her life to have to contend with that.
