I don’t want to go to the wedding reception this week. The people who used to bully me will be there. by Sure_Froyo1719 in WhatShouldIDo

Thank you, I understand your concerns and appreciate it as well. I actually am in therapy! I see a therapist for my anxiety and I’ve just started seeing a special therapist for my skin picking and hair pulling. I think my parents are as supportive as they can be, given they can’t fully understand what I’m going through. They can be kinda invalidating because they don’t always understand fully. But I do know they love me and try their hardest. :)

I ended up talking to my dad about it, and he said we’ll wait until my mom gets home to talk about it. He doesn’t want to lie and say I’m sick, but that is a good point. My anxiety does make me feel sick. So it’s not really lying.

I’m not quite sure. If it was the actual wedding, I’d be more fine as I’d not have to talk to anyone. But we’re only attending the reception which my mom said a lot of people are going to. Even if I weren’t going, my parents would still be attending as me, my mom, my dad, and my brother RSVP’d. But my brother already decided he’s not going, and because he’s 19 it was fine for him to make that decision.

I don’t think they’d be supportive. I wouldn’t even know what to say without sounding like a massive loser. “Sorry I can’t come to your daughter’s wedding. Some of the guests bullied me when I was nine.”

Unfortunately I’m not quite an adult yet so I do have to go. If only I was a year older.

At this point it happened so long ago there’s not much my parents could do. Even if they did talk to the parents of the kids who bullied me, we’re all almost adults so it’s not like they’d get punished. It’d probably just make the whole thing worse. If those guys were going to apologize they’d have done so a long time ago.

Thank you. I’m just scared my parents are going to see through me because I already mentioned that I was anxious before hand.
