My best friend confided in me a few days ago that’s she’s very unwell emotionally and mentally. We talked for a while. Everyday since then (3 days) I’ve texted her and asked how she’s feeling. I want to be there for her. Today she told me not to ask her anymore. So I won’t. But she’s the one who came to me! What am I supposed to do?! I’m at a loss.

Well, maybe she just doesn’t like to be reminded of how unwell she is. If she asked you not to, I don’t see what else is a good option , besides not doing it.

Sounds like shes pushing you away. Maybe find other ways to be there for her

I definitely plan to not ask and not bring it up again. But honestly, it’s unfair she told me how bad she’s doing and expects me to not worry.
But regardless, I plan to talk to her about other things and try to make the things that I do talk about be positive. That’s all I can think of.

Yeah. I feel that. People who are struggling don’t always act fair. I can never hit the exact right balance with this, and i have been on both sides of the equation.

I think you should be more relaxed to her.
Maybe she wants to tell you more, but when her time comes, and you are prepared to listen.
She must be dwelling about her situation and has no one to turn to…

I mean I asked her each day since but only once per day. I guess that was wrong. I’ll get over it. I just need to meet her where she’s at and just let her come to me when she wants
