Jekyll & Hyde

I met my friend earlier, the last few times we have met we have had fun. This time she has gone back to her Jekyll & Hyde ways of being sarcastic and saying nasty comments and telling me I don't care about her life so why ask. She had a go at me for mentioning a comment I said ages ago that I disagree with the use of antidepressants but that's my opinion. She is on Prozac and I advised for her to see a councillor first.

The reason she is depressed is she had an affair with 44 year old, she is 23 and lost her virginity to him. Now he has cut her out of his life and she is suicidal. I don't see why she feels this way as he made it obvious he didn't want a relationship. I am having a hard time myself and don't need her sob story as she makes out her life is harder than everyone else and thinks she can be horrid. I ditched her a while ago for a year due to this behaviour and she contacted me after a year. How do I go about this?

If you think shes a good friend (regardless of what she does, we all know who our close friends are right?), then I say stick with her. Shes clearly not had the best of experiences, so I would help her through it if I considered her a good friend. If you think youre not that close then by all means let her go again, she doesnt seem to deserve your friendship and support if shes like that to you. But again, shes been through some rough things obviously, and being on prozac cant exactly help her state of mind...

I'm not an expert, but I would say stick with her. You never know, one day she might come through for you :smile:
