Well a good friend of mine has succumbed to depression

I supported her every step of the way. I constantly texted her, hanged out with her, and made her feel better. Now she thinks she isn't worth it and that I should abandon her like many others. Of course I was offended. I, who stayed by her side for so long, was pushed away. She accused me of having a perfect life when she knows that I don't, and then proceeded to say that even God abandoned her. I am now at a loss for words. Anyone who has seen me on the forums knows I'm way more lighthearted, but I'm slowly becoming remorseless. Anyone else who has experienced this?

  • It's part of depression. Nothing you do will convince her otherwise. All you can do is keep putting up with it, or abandon her like the rest. Know that she doesn't necessarily see your life as perfect, but compared to hers and with the over the top emotion associated with depression it seemed that way at the time. Read up on depression a bit and be very understanding with her and you might be able to help, but trust me as someone who has had depression and has lived with a partner with severe depression: she will frustrate the -blam!- out of you and it's going to be so hard on you psychologically. It could get much worse than it is now too. It all depends how much you're prepared to put into your friendship. PM me if you need something g more specific.
