The Writer's Block - Your emotional venting thread. I'll explain.

i wish my friends gave me nice advice like "dont worry. go to sleep and you'll feel better" or something like that but when they give me advice i feel like theyre criticizing me more than anything.

i'm the opposite, but i see where you're coming from.
If you wanted you could try telling your friends something like 'hey thanks for trying but that doesn't really help.'
^
That's probably not a good way to phrase it, but do you know what i mean? Like maybe just mention to them you feel criticized by their advice and they'll hopefully adjust their advice-giving.

you know when a friend is actively trying to help you and get you to bed but all you can do is sit on the stairs and stare blankly at the wall for a few minutes and then you feel awful because yes

It's okay to be that way sometimes, no one's gonna begrudge you for it. It happens.

Saint Paul said something to one of his jailors once that I think is very relevant to life

"Do no harm to yourself; we are all here." (Acts 16:28)

Yet Another Person I Know Has Possibly Started Cutting (i'm Like 99% Certain) And I Don't Even Know Them That Well But I Handed Them A Note With My Contact Info Saying They Could Talk To Me Whenever And It Would Be Totally Confidential, And They Added Me On Social Media. I Guess This Means It's My Go, But Wtf Do I Even Say Now? Wtf Do I Do I'm Freaking Out Why Is This Causing Me So Much Distress. ;_;

Ask Them Whats Wronggggggggggg Chiald And Ask Them Politely Why They Are Cutting.

haha great now my parents are yelling at each other too
(also I may have fucked up and so how do I only wear long sleeves and skirts without my parents getting suspicious)

I don't know what to say other than "ugh that's awful" but that's not... all that helpful?

man my parents don't yell at each other but my little brother occasionally blows his top so cheers to sitting and doing something else and trying to stay out of the way of angry siblings

in other news
I never freaking agreed to this and now I have more life than I know what to do with *thumbs up lol*
