Friends not even trying to help?

Post Reply New Topic

Right now I am experiencing my second depressive episode (diagnosed as F33.1, moderate-severe).

I have some friends i trust, but they have not really asked me how i am or in any other way tried to let me know they care. I dont really know if they actually are my friends.

One of them has tried to help, but doesnt seem to grasp the severity of my depression.

Maybe i just am too picky? I don't know anymore.

Unfortunately most friends are the fair weather type. Over the years I found many avoided me, or turned nasty, if I showed weakeness. It is a human trait to avoid catching what ever plagues another. Hopefully you still have a couple of true friends that will stand by you, like people here do.
