I’ve been struggling with my mental health again, and I’m fed up with being used and abused for money or being there for someone when they have no one else.

Who’s there for me?

And why does it always happen to me?

Last week there was a mix up over a night out.

I was looking forward to a night out and even ordered some new tops from Boohoo.

A mate asked me to hang out with them and go to a few bars for a couple of drinks.

I had to pick up my car, so I told them that I would be out as soon as I got back.

When I arrived back home, I received a text message saying that they didn’t have any money and couldn’t do tonight.

Then I received another text message saying that they were in town with another mate getting free drinks.

Am I unreasonable to think that they could have invited me to join them?

I called that person and texted them, but they never answered.

I’ve been struggling with my mental health recently, and I thought I was getting back on track only to be almost caught out by another person who I’m told is using me for money and convenience.

They did, however, text me the next morning to say that they were sorry and would like to make it up to me.

Now I’m paranoid it’s another lie or sweetener so that they can carry on treating me like dirt.

I’m not a great judge of character when it comes to friendships; I always pick the ones who get drunk and start chatting up the men for free drinks and going off and ignoring me.

However, I’m too nice to not be friends with someone just because of gossip. I like to see the person with my own eyes.

Should I give them another chance?

I’ve also been struggling with my mental health, and I have this urge to spend big and go on another drinking spree.
