Mental Illness

NAS80566

I feel kind of lost. I have some really bad bouts with mental illness (depression, anxiety) and I feel like its pushing away my best friend. It happens less now, but I always feel bad when it does.

We were at a party yesterday and part way through I feel the tell tail sign of depression and anxiety seep in. I excuse myself to my car when they are not around to hopefully recover before they notice. But they found me and realized what was wrong. We stayed for a little longer but decided to leave earlier than originally planned. I feel like it was because of me, and I feel like *** because of it.

I was DD that night and when driving home it was getting worse. They could tell I was not doing well and said that I could just drop them at home instead of what we planned.

I feel bad that I ruined the night and now I am afraid they don't want anything to do with me. That they are mad at me.

I don't know what to do and I am afraid to text them

  • I told my friends after I recovered from burnout, that  I need to take my mental health more seriously, and so I can go out with them once a month, prefereably somewhere uncrowded, plus a dinner at my home once a month, otherwise I will quickly get worse again, they accepted it as a fact, and so it is now

    on 1st Aug me and two of them are going to have a field trip to escape from city, and go visit Bramble Castle on foot, (10miles one way). get drunk along, without people to bother us, weather prediction is amazing 20C, cloudless, light showers early morning

    Think about it, Do you need to go out with them in between of crowds of drunks? Or would you rather meet them somewhere quite and secluded?
