I think it possible that a person, having fallen on some hard times and into a difficult situation, could deliberately distance oneself from family and friends by presenting a facade of negativity so deep and powerful that it repels them. If that were intended to relieve others of any sense of duty or release them from attempts at compassion, it would indeed be a sincere display of altruism on the part of the afflicted.
However, it seems at least as likely as not that any such conclusion so drawn is a pragmatic manifestation of survival of the fittest and more likely to have arisen from the circumstance of self preservation.
