I don't know how to even put all of this into words. Sometimes when I'm low or depressed, I shut down completely. And I've told few of my true friends (I don't have many it's just very few) about that and told I'll need space at times. And they say that they do understand. But yet they get worried about me if I don't text properly one day. It's frustrating because I know they're just worried about me because they truly care, and its also so annoying that they're worried about me constantly (I don't hurt myself nor use substances - I'm actually just fine except for having to deal with intrusive and disturbing thoughts for which I need my own time to process)

I've been struggling a lot with my friendships lately, it wasn't worse until few days back. But all of a sudden I've been made feeling bad for not replying to people properly (when I'm low in energy I just don't do it). So I was curious if there's others who felt similarly? Like how has bipolar worsened your friendships?
