My friend is really starting to annoy/upset me

[1_21Guns]

Kay, so Lucy was my best friend for a while, but we drifted apart and although we still talk like best friends alot of the time. Anyway, she's been getting really cocky with me and generally unpleasant. And although she knows alot of the things thats wrong, for example my self harming and that I think im severely depressed, and she knows alot of the reason why, yet she still seems to mock it, like today in R.E, we were doing about suicide, which is a topic i get touchy on anyway because i've nearly killed myself a few times, but when i put my head down to stop myself crying, she just goes "its not like your lifes that messed up, theres people far more worse off than you" and when questions like "what makes life worth living/not living" come up, she says stupid things like musicals, which I found insulting seeing as I do have problems myself that although to some they may not seem that bad, they've clearly messed me up. I know people are worse off then me, and im greatful im not as bad off as them, but i just dont think her comments are appropriate sometimes, and i dont know if i should try and say i dont find them appropriate, or if im just being touchy and childish.

She's not being a good friend right now.

If she knows you, and knows about your depression and self harm, there is no reason for her to mock it and to me that is incredibly rude and obsurd to mock someone about these types of things. She really doesn't understand you, because she's never been in your situation, so she doesn't understand the magnitude of what has happened. You might not be in her life today had you have taken your own life (which very thankfully you didn't), and she needs to be reminded of that. Sit her down, and tell her how much this is upsetting you, and that she doesn't understand *above sentences*. If she doesnt accept that, and stop acting the way she is now, she doesn't deserve to be your friend.

It's hard to advise you on this because it depends on how close you two are atm, you said so yourself you act like best friends but if you're not, then you should seriously think about making friends with people who will be a lot more understanding,

If you two are particularly close then confide in her, tell her that she is making you feel awful/much worse, if she really does consider you as a good friend she'll listen to you, and if she doesn't then all that should tell you is she doesn't understand and won't, so then try to make friends with new, more sympathetic people...

I know that isn't easy advice to follow, but you never know, you might just find a happy ballance in a new crowd.

That's the best I can do, I'm afraid,
I hope that helps (:^,

I would suggest you talk to her about it. Tell her how you feel about her mocking you. You will probably find it hard to do so as you may fear she will mock you even more, but if she used to be a best-friend then I am sure she will listen to you and achknowledge what you have to say. The best way to sort problems like this are to handle them by talking to the person.

Uhm. Actually I don't know what I'd do about musicals.
And I was on that week.
Im sorry, but sometimes I don't find some of your comments particularly appropriate at times, so therefore we are square.
