I have a friend (Emma) who some of you might already know about if u read my other thread "all I do is mess things up" we were getting on very well last Wednesday (27th June) and I thought great things are OK again. I felt really happy but I saw her again on Sunday and I was in a funny mood a really negative mindset so I assumed that her and a couple of our friends weren't talking to me. I realised this wasnt the case I felt a bit silly so I spent the rest of the night trying to put things right and have a laugh. I think I was trying too hard and maybe being too much in Emma's face. We have had our problems because I rejected her a few weeks back which upset the both of us but she said she was OK.
Basically she has a lot going on, she hates her job she has very low self esteem, she failed her driving test a couple of months ago but has another test next week (if she drove it would really improve her job prospects). She told me yesterday that she thinks she is having a nervous breakdownand doesnt know what to do. I have told her that maybe she should get some help but she says she wants to sort it out by herself. I want to help her but because of what's happened between us I dont think she would want my help or I might make her worse even though I went through almost the exact same thing about a year and a half ago. I know what she's going through and I know I can help because I have read self help books I see a psychologist I am interested in psychology as I will be studying it. I have learnt all these tecniques and methods to overcome these feelings but I feel I am powerless I really want her to get some help. I wish I could wave a magic wand and take these feelings away from her.
