This is just something really short since it is a simple question : is there a positive way for me to talk about my issues with my friends? I mean, recently, I feel as though all I ever do is negatively rant, vent, and complain to them. It completely contrasts with the way I represent and deal with my issues. When I become suicidal, or upset even, I don’t want to worry nor bring others into my problems so I show my sadness as happiness. I dance, prance, and sing in a manner that makes them truly believe I have entered my “usual” ‘hyperactive, energetic, happy mode’. I am truly not, however, when I sing; I really just muffle “I wish to die!” “fml!!” “wooooooooo!!!!!!! Life sucks!!!” But now, all I do is complain, is there a way?

It might help to sit down with them and be honest. Tell them how you’ve been feeling and ask them for advice. If they’re true friends they’ll stick by you and support you no matter what.
Are you currently in treatment? Seeing a therapist or school guidance counselor? You can also speak with someone else you trust before consulting your friends about how you’ve been feeling. Sometimes you just need someone to listen, I understand that. 🙂
