Tbh it’s mainly one friend, it just took me way too long to realize that it wasn’t normal to be talked to that way because everyone else treats it as normal. They used to swoop in to comfort him before I talked to them about it.
It’s just hard to pull back because we’ve been so enmeshed for almost a decade now 🙁
That’s a long time. Well, thankfully, we don’t have to tell even our closest friends everything. You’re always free to compartmentalize and share different things with people who you think are most likely to help you. I don’t think there’s any one person with whom I share everything, personally, at least at the moment.
That’s… I would find maturer friends. I can’t believe that’s what their reaction is to your difficulties.
