What do you hate about you?

You're a bright, intelligent, creative young lady, as far as I can tell.

everything. i hate everything about me.

Meh. Is it okay if I don't believe you?

You hate being ginger?

You hate being able to draw (something I can't do)?

You hate your pretty blue eyes?

You hate all the fun that you have brought us here?

You hate being taller than me?

I know you're angry at something, sweety, and that has made you mad at yourself. Can you tell me when it started?

i really do hate everything about me. even all those things. i definitely havn't brought any fun here. all i've done since i came is whine about how stupid i am. like now. i hate the world and how unfair it is. i don't want to be in a world like this anymore. i hate being human.

Why humans? Because humans cause pain to others?

I'm telling you specifically that you've never harmed me. You bring joy with your bubbly exclamation points and silly pictures and beautiful artwork. Because humans can cause joy, too, you know.

I bring my own sadness here, too, you know. And people help me with it, just like we do with you. It's what this place is for, really.

This is how we change this world. One human at a time.

Blossom, you are taking the side of your parents right now:( and it is making me cry and cry. I know too well how bad it feels to be abandoned. And I know why sometimes you agree with your parents, because everything just seems toooooo hard :(

yeah because humans cause pain to others. i wish i could feel joy.

Oh blossom, you bring me joy all the time.

the way i'm feeling right now has nothing to do with my parents. not this time.

well I think you do feel joy sometimes, and sometimes you don't. And the times when we are really low it is too hard to remember that we ever felt good before and even harder to believe that we will ever feel joy again. But I think you have so much to look forward to if you can get past the hard parts.

Is there something you tried to do but then couldn't figure out how?

thanks star. but the bad feelings outweigh the good ones

what do you mean?

Only right now.

Look back at the record, if you doubt me. Your good times sound pretty good, to me.

There is something that is causing you to be extremely harsh; some conclusion you have drawn.

i don't know.

What words would you use to describe how you are feeling? NOT what you are thinking and concluding... what you are feeling.

Okay, sweety, so now instead of drowning in sorrow, let's see what we can find out.

When did you start feeling this way, right after our conversation about humans eating other living things?

sad and desperate

Sorry, 'finding' and I are getting our wires crossed. Let's go with her ideas for a while. Then I'll jump back in if I'm still needed. :-)

yeah a little after that

OK. I feel sad and desperate when _________________ because___________________. I want________________

i'm not good at this.. i'm sorry

That's OK Blossom. You feel sad and desperate. We are all here with you. We love you very much. I'm guessing you want to leave this life because that is how sad you feel.
