[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just keep pointing it out. After her third rant say “Okay that’s three negatives. Now come up with a positive because this whole conversation can’t be a downer.” Or “I know I’m a good person to vent to, but I’m worried that you have nothing good to say. Do you need to find some help with things?”[/quote] She sees therapists, doctors, and groups Therapy all week — she doesn’t work, basically her job is dealing with her mental health. Getting help isn’t helping, I just want to maintain a healthy relation that works for both of us. [/quote] It seems like you’re looking for a unicorn. She’s not well mentally. You’re trying to find some way to connect with her that is healthy. Unfortunately, the thing that might be most healthy for you is to set some clear boundaries and cut off the the complaining with the expectation that it won’t make a wit of difference for her. But for YOU, it will help with your own mental health. [/quote]
