So I have a friend that I thought understood me. Ive Got pretty bad ga, depression and adhd and I use to vent to her about my conditions and how it affects my life. I really struggle to work because of the disorders. I basically end up freaking out and leaving because it all just gets too much.

She has seen how bad my attacks can be and that I become debilitated during an attack. We have had years where she agreed that i should go on disability so I don't have to work etc.

Yesterday I was talking to her and she did a total 180, instead of compassion she basically just laid in to me and said I need to man up and get a job. I would if I didn't freak the hell out and didn't get attacks and depression.

On one hand I do get where she is coming from, I need to generate an income somehow or i am screwed. I just can't work or work a conventional job. Unfortunately i don't have skills to work online or remote and the skills I do have are not in demand at all anymore since 3d printing basically replaced my skill set. I can't afford the software that is used either so I can't learn it.

I honestly felt like I lost a safe space to talk since she flipped 180 on me. And she vents to me too which I have no problem with at all.

Sorry just felt like getting my thoughts out somewhere.
P. S sorry for bad grammar or spelling.

I'm guessing she's frustrated at her (or, perhaps, anyones) ability to provide meaningful assistance. She's maybe having a bad day herself, things are getting to her (gosh, don't we all know that feeling) and on this occasion she just burst and vented at you.

I saw her today and yeah it turns out her mom is very ill so she lashed out, well not really lashed out just tired I suppose, so that explains it.
