How've you been?

I attempted to end my life this past weekend, cops were called, nothing really happened. After that, I overheard my ex (I guess I'll call him K) talking to my two friends (Friend M and Friend D) over the phone about holding an intervention for me. I still live with K, and K and M have been talking behind my back for a while now. Supposedly they're talking about the details tomorrow, and they don't know I know everything.

I don't see this going well since it's going to feel like so many people ganging up on me. I know I'm going to feel defensive and probably get angry. They're not going to hear me out or try to understand any of the points that make me feel depressed. I've tried talking with them about the topics that have been eating at me for a while now and they are just not helping the situation. How should I approach this?

That's a tough situation. Wish I'd read this yesterday though I don't know what I'd do in that situation, it would definitely be uncomfortable and outright infuriating.

Invalidating someone's struggles and dismissing their problems generally isn't the way to get someone to do anything more than a reluctant/forced head nod to make people stfu and go away. Sorry your going through this. 😰


Has it started yet?
If so, how did it go? 🫥
