In reply to a friend blowing me off b/c I told her..., posted by JenStar on September 30, 2005, at 17:30:53
You apologized for not returning her calls and that is all you can do. If she doesn't accept your apology, then that is her problem. A true friend would understand that you were going throug a hard time. When I am going through severe anxiety or depression, I cannot be around anybody. It is not my fault. I try, I just cant.
On the other hand. She might not understand depression. She may have taken it personal. Like you were deliberately trying to hurt or ignore her. She may have issues of her own. Just pray about the situation. There is nothing more that you can do. The ball is in her court now.
I have a good friend that understands me completely. When I am having anxiety, I ask her the same question over and over. She keeps reassuring me that everything is ok. My husband gets mad and fusses if I keep asking him. (the question is usually related to whatever I am obsessing over). It is good to have a friend who understands and does not judge.
Luv ya,
Lynn
