On Saturday my best friend came over. I invited her because she was feeling anxiety about her son getting hurt in a hockey game. I listened intently and supported her feelings even though I was feeling depressed. This is probably the 5th or 6th time I have listened to the hockey beat up story involving her son.
I offered her a beer and we listened to a cd on my computer. then i began to tell her about my discovery of psych central. She smiled and then laughed. I said forget it, you obviously think its funny.

i didnt make a big deal out of it, but i feel really like she is so ignorant about mental illness that i will never talk to her again about it. I cannot rely on her for support and feel too vulnerable to ever mention it. This event is making me feel like not even being her friend anymore. Im so dissappointed.
