Sometimes people don't know how to handle it when someone else is distressed.

It could be that your friend reacted angrilly towards you because he actually cares. He wouldn't have got angry if he didn't care.

And sometimes being angry yourself is the best way to get through a period of distress.

If your friend is normally someone that you know cares and is a friend you have had for so long, can you maybe see it from his point of view? Maybe he was at a loss as to what to say, maybe it hurt him to hear you in so much pain.

I don't know, I should think you know your friend better than anyone.

Take care.
