I have been going through some pretty INTENSE mood changes (I mean from minute to minute) and can't seem to find a helpful therapist that will listen and not straight up call the hospital where they won't treat the problem.

My current roommate is not helping. We will be parting ways in several months because she's graduating, but boy every second with her in unbearable. To keep it short, I seem to be the only person that has put up living with her for three years. Most people I know straight up avoid her... and I can see why now. Her personality hasn't budged a bit. I even wrote several contracts with her stating my boundaries and she still doesn't respect them. She's insulted my work before in front of a group of other students, doesn't listen or care about others and is basically toxic.

The real problem with her is that she thinks of herself very highly and seems to take pleasure in making others suffer. BUT, when it's the other way around, she becomes sheepish and runs away and cries (quite literally).

As many of you probably also do, I live with extreme anger. Now all of it has been directed to my roommate who still doesn't listen to feedback.

Do you guys also have bad roommate stories?

Just kind of feeling alone in this situation despite friends and family understanding irl. Probably because I've been putting up with this for three years and see her every day...

Anyway, sending positive vibes to ya'll, let's leave this on a good note. I have faith that the situation will be resolved but guess I feel like a sucker for not having acted earlier as I was under the impression we were friends.
I am so sorry you are going through this and I am glad you will be done with her soon. The only roommate issue I have is when I was in college and her name was Melissa. Melissa was 18 like me and dated a 25 year old guy and they always fought. When they were not fighting on the phone he was in the room fighting there. She smoked (I did too) but she smoked in our dorm room like a chimney(I do not believe in smoking indoors, especially in the bedroom) and all my stuff smelled. One time we went to a frat party and she got so drunk she passed out in the entranceway to the dorm and I called security. Now, people are dying from alcohol poisoning and wouldnt blink at doing that but back in the 90's I guess people were scared of getting in trouble. They took her away in the ambulance and her mother had the nerve to yell at me for calling. She didn't even get in trouble but I didnt want her to die. Thankfully I had a bf that I stayed with a lot so I avoided her. Her mom tried to screw me for the phone bill as well.
