I know a lot of people will think I'm mean for doing this, but you have to keep in mind I've stuck with this friend for over 20 years. Her anxiety disorder is out of control, doctors, and meds aren't helping, and she's becoming more isolated and fearful. So I'm thinking of ending our friendship. Maybe having me around is the reason she doesn't try harder to get better, because she knows I'll run errands for her, stop by to check on her, and listen to her cry all the time. I love her, but love myself more, and this is messing with my peace of mind. So I'm not looking to be criticized, I'm just looking for comments from people who found themselves in this position, and chose to end the friendship. How did you end it without causing too much hurt? She has shown me her medical records, and it does list an anxiety disorder. Today was the last straw for me. I posted two other questions with describes my friend.
