Description ...that dare not speak its name

People can (and will) treat you in two ways:

1 - They (mostly your family) will worry about you all the time, not leaving you alone for a second, treating like you're made of glass that can break into a million pieces at any second for numberous of reasons (Let's not say anything bad or sad to her because she may try it again) and they ask you all the time if you're happy and if everything it's ok; when they see you're serious, quiet, contemplative and alone they secretly freak out wondering if you're considering doing it again...

2 - Other people stay away from you as far as they can. They avoid you because they fear you; think you're dangerous somehow (?); or they think whatever you have that led you to it may be contagious...

It's something that society feels we shouldn't talk about because they don't know what you want to hear.

What do you think we should say?

I can't say for everybody, but for me I think they should say nothing and just leave me alone; I did a mistake, I'll have that for the rest of my life, I don't need to be reminded all the time (if I offended you, sorry it wasn't my intention)

if you find yourself in this situation with someone close to you you can tell them you care and you're there for he or she whenever they need. Don't ask them why they did it, because they probably won't answer (maybe they won't have a proper answer, which was my case)

I prefer people not to talk about it with me, because people close to me had attitudes towards me that made me feel really uncomfortable. If they just told me they care and they're there for me when I need help and that's it things would be so much better...

You forgot pity-- people wanting to help you, just to appease their own conscience.

I forgot to put that one; it never happened to me (as far as I can tell) but it happened to a friend of mine...

Then there's the people who don't notice, and the one's who don't try to stop you.

yes, I've never met those people, specially the second type...the first type the people who don't notice is because I never told them

Lolli333 In reply to hope-is-overrated [2010-09-27 22:52:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. Most of the second type are those who know that I won't listen, or see it as my choice. I'm glad they think that way, but I also sometimes wonder if they just don't care.

haha, another downside of paranoia: You think everyone's lying to you, hates you, and is basically keeping around to laugh at your stupidity.

may I ask who died. I'm sorry to hear that your having a hard time.

I remember when my mom died, everyone just said they were sorry. I got so sick of hearing that word. I wished someone would say to me. 'Wow, that sucks. I'm here to talk'

So thats what I'm saying to you. Wow. I'm sorry, that sucks. I'm here if you want to talk.

me...I almost died before...nobody said to me they were sorry or they never wanted to talk to me about it and even if they did I wouldn't talk to them 'cause they would never understand anyway

thanks, if you need to talk to, I'm here
