Lockdown Alone
16 Answers
A friend I met through church was calling me every day and texting. All of a sudden it's stopped. She's saying she doesnt live in people's pockets. I've tried to get an explanation but she's pretty much closed off. It's been very upsetting for me as I have been experiencing depression. When we chatted it was very much lightheated and she'd say I cheered her up. I'm at a loss

I think your friend is going through a tough time, lockdown alone is hard going and as bednobs and ummm have said,she too may be going through some hard times, lockdown is not a jolly good holiday,maybe she is such a good friend she is trying not to burden you with her woes knowing that you have a depression, small worries get magnified in these situations, give her time to get through this, ye met through church so she is obviously a very good living person. Have patience and try see life through her eyes, it is not easy for anyone

Perhaps she feels the same way you felt about the person in this post, and is doing what you did (ignoring your messages etc). Perhaps she does not have the strength you had to tell you you are not on the same wavelength?
In any case, there is not much you can do to change someone else

Lockdown is rubbish and it's even worse when you are in plaster and can't take care of your own child, but I wouldn't say it's getting to me (apart from my loss of mobility) as I spend quite a bit of time on here and there are always loads of conversations you can join in.
There are always people on here willing to listen, help and give practical advice.
As for your friend - probably not a friend in the truest sense - she might not be able to cope with someone else's emotions at present. She might find it too draining. If you are feeling bereft over her sudden absence, perhaps you were getting too emotionally attached and that's what has caused her to back away.
