Okies, this is gonna drag the thread out a little bit more, but, my friend strikes again!

She called me again (of which I let my voice mail answer) and was drunk and cursing me to the four corners for not being there for her when I need her the most. She also threw in a few four-letter words about me, which I took great offense to.

Per my T's suggestion, I have decided that she is going to get a firmly worded e-mail about my feelings and her insensitivity to my situation. She clearly does NOT want to follow her doctor's advice and stay on her meds, but instead is self-medicating through alcohol. This is not a person I need or want in my life right now.

It is tearing me apart that I have to be so harsh with her, but I need healthy relationships if I'm going to continue to make myself healthier mentally. Her self-medicating ways only make me more stressed out, which isn't conducive to my ongoing battle with my bi-polar.

I don't think a phone call or a face-to-face will get through to her, so my only other option is e-mail at this point.

Please pray I'm doing the right thing.
