[quote=Anonymous]You are not a bad friend. She is. You cannot be her therapist, and she should not keep trying to drag you into your traumatic situation. Gently let her know that while you want to support her emotionally and be there for her, her approach to what happened is causing you pain and making you relive what you have worked hard to leave behind you. Let her know that therapy was a huge part of your healing, and tell her that she really needs to see a therapist and work things out. Then steel yourself to minimize contact with her until she takes some healthy steps towards dealing with the situation, rather than just making it your problem. If it comes down to a choice between her well-being and yours, you owe it to yourself (and your husband) to choose your own well-being. Be kind but be absolutely firm.[/quote]
