All I know is that if let myself get swept away, how much help can I be if said friend decides to wakes up and see the truth? The keyword is "if", which is unfortunate; we always hope that they will see the light even if that is not guaranteed. I guess all I can say is do what you can but stay strong and don't get swept away. *hugs* I’ve been in situations like this too many times, but I don’t know if what I think is the best way to handle such situation is right for you.

You can't really do much for them. My best suggestion is to remain their friend, and be there when it falls apart. That's when people truly need their friends the most. I have stood by and watched friends, who I tried to help stop their downward fall, crash and then be left alone. If they are the type of friend you care deeply about, the above is my suggestion. If they are not close, you may just for your own sake; walk away. You admitted to having depression problems, and "fixing" others is not something you need to do. Concentrate on yourself more. Take it from a friend (Yes are my friend still sweetie...still remember the fun and miss it sometimes) you don't need to worry about someone else if you are having issues of your own. Over all you will be better prepared to help them and yourself if you work on your stuff first. See you in Sept. I am sorry you are having friend issues. You can’t really do much for them.

You need to be interacting, and they most likely need you to be interacting but you also have to set limits. You can't let yourself get swallowed by this.
