First, please don't kill yourself. Ultimately, none of us can make the decision, but from one deeply unwell dysfunctional human to another, I prefer this world with you in it
Thats a really hard situation to be in. I'm also really struggling to adapt to functioning in this world, it's a really hard place to be. I think two things can be true. Its valid for them to be upset that you weren't cleaning and whatnot around the appointment. And at the same time, that doesn't make you a bad person. Sometimes when you're unwell, you struggle to handle your responsibilities.
That doesnt make you a bad person, it makes you unwell and struggling to handle your responsibilities. Regardless of whether they're understandably frustrated with the situation.
I wish there was more support I could give, but I'm sending love ๐ซ
