Hello & Welcome, Yodadoll!

Two stories here - you and your friend.

She certainly has gone through a transformation under the influence of a certain kind of therapy and meds. "Those who chose to feel pain" - Did she believe this earlier? (I am aware of philosophies that deny the objective reality of illness and pain, viewing them as delusions or distortions of reality).

In any event, I doubt any mental gymnastics will relieve you of the need to grieve a friendship that was. Your friend is not now in a position to assist you through these difficult days. Do you have other possible supports?

Please keep posting. Your pain and confusion are welcome here.
