Recently, all my friends decided to dump their trauma on me (SA, bad family dynamics, strict parents, pet loss, etc etc) Now, it’s honestly a lot for me. I’m too mentally exhausted to keep doing this, but I feel like they depend on me. I’ve known one of them since fifth grade, and I don’t want them to think that I don’t wanna help them. I really do. I had a bit of a panic attack over this during biology class (oh what a great time to be a student) while trying to do a stupid activity. I couldn’t even explain what was happening. It just… happened. And it’s not the first time this crap happened. I honestly feel like a burden on them, especially to one friend that I haven’t had to deal with them venting to me. It honestly sucks. I don’t wanna have to make them feel bad for me either. I have a constant urge to try and fix their lives, even if I don’t even have the mental energy to wake up most days. Someone help me either tell them how I feel or what to do in general.

I know that this might not be the right place for this, so if you DO know the best place, can you help me find it? Thanks.
