Not a valid argument in the USA. Several services are undertaken by the government because it is recognized that providing it for all is more beneficial than placing the onus on individual families.

Goddamnit every single one of your comments is apropos.

I agree.

“but my accident was a traumatic incident for me and I do not want to talk about it.”

Damn Lifehacker. What’s next? What to do when the CIA is after you?

This is rando but maybe you’re a “TP” on the Myers-Briggs assessment? It’s common for this type to not know about what’s affecting them emotionally as it’s happening so there’s a delay. (Example: Me)

A somewhat useful mental device I use is to imagine my sister feeling shame/guilt/not wanting to make a scene.... and then I’m filled with a vicious rage that obligates me to make a scene. I find it much easier to be angry on someone else’s behalf?

Oh! That’s just friction/entropy and the relationship fizzling out. Yeah no one is obligated to return equal enthusiasm in communication. MOST people in the friendship arena can pick up quick if you’re always busy for dinner or reply to texts two days later.
