how does this sound?

Question

Hey ashley its jill. how are you? i just wanted to apologize if i came off as an asshole the other night at the middle school dance. i wasn't having a very good night to start with. and i haven't told a lot of people this but i've been depressed a lot lately and have social anxiety disorder. and sometimes its worse than others, and that night was not a good night for me. i wasn't even sure i should go because i knew it was going to be pretty bad. i'm sorry. i wish i wasn't like that but i think Im getting to the point where i can't control it by myself, because the amount of anxiety i had the other night was worse than its ever been and not normal. i might need to get some prozac for it or something. i'm sorry i don't mean to put all my problems on you i just wanted you to understand if i ever seem like an asshole at all its that and i can't really help it unfortunately. i just wanted to say thank you and i really appreciate that you were so nice to me the other night and always are and i hope you know how much i appreciate it. i mean that. you've been a great friend to me, and I'm sorry I haven't always been able to. I wish i could be. Thank you so much. I'll see you soon. -jill

I remember your question about this from the other day. I think this is a nice note explaining your feelings to your friend, however, have you thought about having this conversation with her in person? I really think it would be better that way. Although it may feel safer to write it in a note, it may help you more if you try to say it face to face. Don't even talk about medications with her. That is something for you to talk to your Dr about and no one elses business. I wish you the best and hope you will get the help you need to feel better and function easier. You are not alone. There are so many people suffering with depression and anxiety in our world today. We live in a very stressful world. Be well.
