I'm sorry to hear about your sister.Sorry this is happening. We're all here for you. I always feel anxious when someone brings that kind of stuff up. My sister has always been an attention seeker and she'd lie about multiple horrible things, she has a mental disorder, she'd always lie about her having panic attacks and depression and even went as far as to faking cancer.. I really don't trust people on that because of her, it's a series thing.
I'm not saying I don't believe you, I'm saying I support you, just sometimes it's hard to think of someone saying they have it than go back to my sister, who has always faked it. I hope things get better for you, Ellie
I'm truly not faking it, but I understand why you might think I am. Don't worry about it though, I'm not offended by you saying that.
I actually faked that nothing was wrong with me for quite awhile before I finally decided that I'd admit to people how I'm honestly doing and feeling. I denied it for over 9 months before I eventually gave in. It took a lot of persuasion from my closest friend for me to do so.
My dad has gone through several near death experiences and it's led me to believe that I shouldn't make such a big deal out of the things going on in my life because they don't compare to the things that happened to my dad.
I honestly feel somewhat undeserving because I know that my dad has endured so much more than I have. Therefore, I try not to make a big deal out of the things happening to me.
I don't necessarily always like talking about it either, so I kinda try to brush it off like it's no big deal. Quite honestly, I'm still hiding a lot. There is so much I keep secret that no one knows about.
You've only seen the surface. I'm not likely to tell my secrets, either unless things get very, very, very severe.
