    Had a rough week, what with the whole drugs thing (not me other mates) One of them being sectioned, and the fear that he's never going to be the same has got me a little bit down

    Never take Drugs kids.

    Then there is this girl, she has depression like me and has latched onto me, I can't cope with her as well as me. It was my best friends birthday and i arranged a party and she was just attached to me the whole night, I couldn't cope.
    Then yesterday she tried calling me, bashing at my door and calling my name all at the same time and i couldn't cope with it. I just sat in my room curled up trying to be as quiet as possible nearly shaking and i have no idea why. I had twenty missed calls by the end of the night, why couldn't I of just got up, answered the door and told her to go away?
    I don't know how to get rid of her? Not rid of her, just to stop her depending on me, were not even really friends, after one night of drunken talking she decided that she was my best friend and started trying to hang out with me all the time and i feel sorry for her because she has hardly any friends here at uni. I got a feeling i might need to go back on the pills again.

    Hope everyone is feeling ok, now that the suns gone it all seems a little harder, I want it back!


    I can see why you weren't able to answer the door! I think that sounds kinda scary and I've been living alone for the past 10 years, 3 of those years in a fairyl rough area and in a hostle. I'd have called the police, 'friend' or not, the police are trainer to work out those who need help rather then are bad and would have likely talked to your 'friend' rather then carting her off to a poilce cell.

    You mention drugs in your first paragraph, I just wonder if this girl is also under the infuence of something (drugs, alcohol, other...) or is in need of some form of psychiatric help- maybe ask her? its just it rings alarm bells for me and sounds similar to people I have known. Does she know her behaviour is a bit over the top? does she know she freaked you out? Please get some help with this- have you tried the student services? it sounds like it could get out of hand and end in tears quite easily!

    Alison I have Bipolar and it is will managed. I now feel completely normal, just like 'me' although I do still have some anxiety from time to time but not too much. Take care x
