I've got so much in common with my friend but her life is a total mess largely due to her behaviour, I think she may have ASD.
The whole of the last year has been spent with her pouring out the same problems to me over and over again constantly repeating herself, saying she wants to die, going on and on.
Doesn't take any of my suggestions or seek proper psychiatric help and is constantly goading people at work even though she is on a dismissal pathway.
This really is the time for her to pull her socks up, she keeps saying all she wants to is work but then refuses to do as she is told and makes absurd demands.
I got 11 angry emails about work one morning before lunch, none of which I can do anything about as she does not listen to my advice.
I've come to the end of my rope, I value her as a friend but this behaviour is affecting my own mental health and I can't cope any more so I've just stopped seeing her.
She keeps texting me but I've had enough. I've had a major depressive episode because of the problems she keeps loading onto me and have had to up my dose of antidepressants. I've had a lot of personal losses of my own in the last few years which have really got me down but I only speak to my psychiatrist about them, not anyone else.
I don't want to end our friendship but I really am out of options.
Someone give my head a wobble and make me stop encouraging people like this.
