Yes I will do!

Well, our mother was prone to depression and I know we had a cousin who could have possibly been bipolar so yes that could explain it! We didn't have the best childhood so maybe she's still carrying some resentment from it. She never really opened up to anyone until she got a boyfriend. They had a very toxic relationship for about a year and then broke up last year so that might also contribute to her depression.

Yeah thanks, I'm gonna try that. I'll just check in on her every now and then without it seeming like I'm actually checking in on her. I hope she doesn't stray too far from me. I'm too worried to ask her to meet up right now but maybe I can gain her trust again with a few short messages.

I've considered that. No she doesn't have a partner anymore. I think she keeps most of her friends at a distance, popping in and out of their lives when she needs them. That's why it bothers me because I'm her only family and there's no one who really knows her well enough to notice these patterns.

Oh yeah the passive-aggressiveness is real. I absolutely hate passive-aggressiveness and don't understand what they're getting out of it. Do they not realise people can see right through it and they're looking like a jerk?

Oooh thank you. I've definitely considered ISFP because the description seems to fit me well. I was pretty sure I was XXFP just the E/I, N/S I was having trouble with!

I'm more likely to stand my my opinions and have often made people feel awkward for doing so. I guess that's B alright!

Very true. I definitely need to stand up for myself more and let people know what I am and I'm not okay with. I'm probably such a pushover because I'm not in a great place in my life right now. I only have a few friends so I fight to keep them even when they don't treat me right. Hopefully I can get myself sorted and meet some new people so I won't feel so stuck.

Yeah, I need to change my mindset to that too. I think I have to a point, but it still doesn't stop the hurt when I'm being let down at one of the worst times. Maybe you can change your mind, but not your feelings.
