just bc someone has low self esteem or has depression doesnt mean theyre not fucking disgusting and manipulative and i keep having to learn this lesson over and over

If someone uses their mental illnesses as an excuse to hurt you without apologizing you get the fuck out of there. My abuser would use it as an excuse and make me feel guilty for my hurt feelings because it wasn’t his fault he was cruel to me.

Even if they do apologize -that can just be part of the cycle of abuse. Seriously, if someone is using their mental illness to get away with treating you wrong, or making you responsible for it GET AWAY. It is deeply unfortunate to leave someone you care for in a bad spot, but sometimes you have to.
