How do I go about speaking to my best friend about our problem?
Psychologists/therapists/AnyQA.com users are welcomed to help out with this best way they can.
For the past 3 months (almost 4 months coming soon),I've been doing the giving space and time thing for myself (I'm 29) and best friend Brendan Miller (he is 20) (not even sure if he is that anymore). At the advice of some other friends,people on AnyQA.com,even went to a site that does tarot readings,followed it all. I gone as far to hiding from the places that he would be that,that I'd use to go to. IE: Game shops in the area that we both play or judge in tournaments for the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. Tuesday's Peagus Games,Wednesday and Sunday at Misty Mountain. Just so I won't make him angry,upset,uncomfortable,etc.. my presance.

Unfortunately some people have a problem with people who are on medication for depression. They act like you have some sort of disease that they could catch.. Just try to be your same sweet self. Don't try to contact him. If he is so shallow to follow someone else and not pay attention to the fellowship that you shared, the the friendship is not good for you. The only thing you can hope is that one day, he will notice that he misses that friendship and he will contact you. Then maybe you can be friends. in the meantime, take care of you.
you can contact me for more information
erm.i don't understand, but i wish i could help
I'm no Psychologist or anything, but it sounds to me like you need to seek the help of a professional to take care of yourself before you worry about how to deal with Brendan or any of the others you listed. You need to take care of you. If you really want to discuss this with him, you should call him at a place where you know he would not be under the influence of any outsiders if possible. If he is screening your call, try calling from a pay phone or a private phone so he can't avoid the call, and without crying if possible, talk it out. If he or anyone else can not accept you for who you are, then they do not deserve your friendship.
But please, look into getting some professional help to get you feeling good about yourself, you deserve that much.
Check out your closest Women's Center, like at a college or university, and take classes in assertiveness training. You do not sound confident in yourself. Once you develop that self-confidence, you may not care what Dani and others say about you. If you want to e-mail me, I can give you some tips that I got while going through assertiveness training that really helped me understand and like myself.
Brendan has some growing up to do. Work on you first. You may find another friend out there that likes you the way you are.
F*** them get new friends and relize that they are not worth your time. Eventually people will judge you by your actions so if you continue to act distant people will alienate you so be out going forget what other people say and most of all SMILE SMILE SMILE.
If any thing else it will drive those people insane to see you happy and relize they can not hold you down. Take back power in your life and stop letting others have power over you. Im open to talking anytime if you want.
I hope i understood this question right,but it sounds like they are labeling you because you take meds for your depression.Some ppl are like that they don't understand, and they need to if they are your true friends,they will be by your side no matter what in life.I think they should give you a chance , i don't know exactly went down,but sometimes ppl can be extremely cruel.Get someone who u can trust, and talk to them, or get a couselor at school you can talk to
what you need to do is sit down with your friend. mainly,because if he is talking ot you like **** then you need to tell him to f*** off. You don't need to stop enjoying life for some friend who treats you this way. So think about it and reply with doing it to him
