Hi Hankster- no worries. I didn't give the whole picture at first and a lot of people do try to use others to solve their problems. I got extra defensive of this friend because she doesn't ask for enough help when she should from her friends. But others take advantage, I know that.

Another friend wanted me to ask my psychiatrist to see her (as a favor) so she could get him to write her a letter saying she had ADHD and to prescribe meds so she could make it through grad school. I said a BIG no to that one
