Friends

Hey Everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has any advice/can relate. So I have a friend who I've recently become close with (in the last year) and I know she cares about me. She sort of started to become a person I could talk to about my mental health and vice-versa. We have different struggles but could relate somewhat. In the last 4-5 months she has been struggling a lot and kind of relying on me for emotional support while not being able to be there for me. The kind of person I am makes it hard for me to tell her it's too much/ask for space or whatever. I also don't know If i'm just being selfish or sensitive with it all. My brain's a bit muddled about the whole thing. Anyway, two days ago I got my deviated septum fixed (so surgery) and from the morning I woke up she's been telling me how shit she is feeling emotionally. She'll dump a whole lot and then pull back saying she's trying not to talk about it cause she feels bad cause I'm in pain but she still is talking about it. Honestly, I feel super unimportant and kind of was selfishly hoping this week would be about me. What do I do?
