bff broken relationship healing

0

My bff and i r like sisters-we were soo close but now its in healing mode. I have an addiction that has led to anger problems due to stress and also from bad affects it has caused. I am very successful n the business arena- and have recently started back in groups-and have improved tremendously. Still it is very hard-i try not to isolate-and even when i dont i seem to isolate emotionally-out of fear-and i dont want to hurt or be hurt again-not only from friends but in general. Can anyone relate? Or have thoughts to move forward successfully?

I'm not sure what to tell you but I've has a semi similar situation where my depression led me and my best friend to slowly drift apart. Honestly, I think what's best is to tell them honestly what you feel. I learned from past experience that honesty is the key to relationships. Also, warn them or stray away from things that make you unhappy. Don't be around things that will only bring you down ! :) It's important to be positive and to care about yourself. Hope I helped!

Thank you so much for your input. You are right i need to be open and honest continually about important struggles with her and be assertive about not being in situations that may cause the depression to trigger more. That is a good reminder that i cant really be a friend to her or the like if im not taking care and loving myself first. Thank you again for your input and support regarding this subject.
