Why Suicide Seems So Attractive Sometimes
17:00. Phone call from my sister:
Sister: "Hey there. How are you?"
Me: "Fine. You?"
Sister: "Great, everything's great. We missed you at the family lunch today."
Me: "Oh."
Sister: "Why didn't you come?"
Me: "For obvious reasons, I'd think."
Sister: "Which are?"
Me: "Well, that I didn't feel like being pulled into mom's emotional manipulation roller coaster again, and being accused by her that I'm the cause of all her sorrows; and that I knew that if I sat down and had lunch with you, I'd end up purposely vomiting in the restaurant bathroom after dessert."
Sister: "Oh. Yeah, that sounds like good reasons."
Me: "I thought you might agree with me on that."
Sister: "Well, have a nice day. Bye now!"
Me: "Bye."
Sister: "Hey there. How are you?"
