He's Pushing Me Away.
Relationship Stress / by andyfalls

...See more My best friend of 6 months, is depressed and pushing me away. Usually he would tell me everything and we would either figure it out or he'd get upset and leave for a while. Sometime during christmas though, he deleted his messenger and we only talked through texts and discord, and even those were somewhat rare, despite the fact that we'd been talking every day since September. It was a horrible time for the both of us and I later found out that he didn't talk to any of his other friends at all, it was just me. He only redownloaded messenger and we started talking normally again about a month ago. However, we got into a small disagreement about two days ago and it freaked me out a lot and while i was asleep he answered about how much what I had said bothered him and he was a bit mean about it but I got his point. I answered yesterday morning with a load of texts saying sorry and feeling anxious about it. He told me he can't answer as he feels to powerless. After a bit of him trying to comfort me he asked if we can talk today instead. I said okay. This morning we talked again normally but again he started saying how he doesnt know what his life is and just stressing with depressive thoughts and then he asked if I we could talk after some time. I'm desperate not to lose him again, I tried asking him if he could please not push me away and now I'm just worried hes gonna go back into isolstion and I will have no way to help him, while I as his best friend want him here.
