My depression and sadness might destroy my friendship. What should I do?

I destroyed a few of my friendships the same way... all u can do is tell her your sorry and try to really listen to things she says to try to mature you happy.

sometimes when we meet someone who is a great listener, it's really tempting to tell them all of our problems all the time - but when we have serious depression or anxiety, we often end up using a friend like a therapist, which in the long-run isn't sustainable and can lead to things like compassion fatigue on behalf of a previously compassionate friend.i would suggest looking for other people to talk to as well, so you can preserve your friendship. a support network needs to be more than one person - i mean ideally you could also seek therapy or counselling, but this isn't accessible in all countries, so in lieu of that find some good forums on depression, and look around for some groups of people who can support you without bringing you down. it's important to learn how to give your friend a break and also develop what's called active listening, which is when you make your friend feel really heard and cared for as well. if that's too exhausting for you to even consider, because of the depth of your depression, then i really strongly suggest seeing a doctor, or getting some professional help too. remember, there's lots of things you can try, and your friend is being honest enough to let you know that this is hard for them - that's a good sign! some friends just quit out of something that's hard, but clearly they're trying to point something out before it gets that serious. good luck. <3

"nO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU ARE FEELING SOMETHING INSIDE, IF YOU DON'T TELL SOMEONE IT IS USELESS. EVEN IF YOU CAN'T DO IT FACE TO FACE, TRY EMAIL OR SOMETHING AND TELL YOUR TRUE FEELINGS TO HER. IM ROOTING FOR YOU!
