My niece used to do this over the phone, she would call me up, and the second I answered start in with her whining about her life, find a million
reasons why she could not fix it, though the answers were simple, hard to do, of course, most change is. She would then yell and curse at everyone
within her home, then she would thank me and hang up saying how much better she felt after talking to me and I would feel drained and annoyed which is
one of the reasons I no longer take her calls.
I felt sorry for her and let her call too much, one day I realized I was getting depressed and realized it was the constant barrage of phone calls, so
now I just don't answer. Yes it was difficult to not take her calls, I know sometime in the future I will have to run into her, small town, large
family, so I guess I will just have to tell her.
She was a PITA.
