tw // depression , toxic person

i have dealt with toxic person for years. she is the manipulative kind . all my friends were her friends and i thought i was the wrong one because she guilt-trip me most of the time. i used to think "oh maybe i am the bad one", "maybe i'm -

"maybe i'm the one being too sensitive" and so on. I was hurt but I used to doubt my own feelings because i thought everyone else "liked" her and I am the one who is being too sensitive. I tried to hold on but I didn't have anyone beside me. I was alone in foreign country

- without any family or friends. i wanted to cry to release my stress but couldnt because apparently this person slept at the bed next to me. so i always cried in the bathroom secretly and pretended i was fine the whole time.

yes this thread is a thread that i made for myself as a reflection. this happened when i was 18-20 and now I am older and I have escaped from this person. what i want to say is that ur feelings are always valid. if someone hurts you, sometimes it's not you being sensitive-
