 One of my close friend has bpd. And he is self harming and has lot of mental breakdowns. And i am trying to be his support. I wanna be there for him. But yesterday he started texting me how he hate him self for faking his mental ilnesses and how he manipulate every one to start taking care about his problems that he create for atention. I now he dont do that thinks so i try to tell him why he dont suck and how is this done just by his mind. But he did not stop panicing and i dont know what to do when this happen again. How should i calm him down? What whoul you like to hear from someone when you are in this situatin? Thanks for any help
