I suffer with anxiety and used to suffer with depression on a regular basis but now the depression and self hating thoughts are less prominent  -  although certain events can bring it cascading back.

I mentioned to a close friend that I was dealing with a lot of anxiety and feeling really bad this week. I didn't really expect their reply. It was along the lines of "individual stuff doesn't matter right now, the world's in crisis." - I was really hurt because it just felt like having my struggle belittled and also I was angry because I found it hard to believe that with the level of mental health awareness these days that someone could say something so off when it's not even like I often vent (first time in half a year I've even opened up) so I know I'm not a burden. I got angry, told them, and then got sadder, told them that too. It started badly with them saying that I was taking offence at nothing, ended better - but i feel pathetic now, having to explicitly ask a close friend to treat me properly. This has set me off on a shame/depression spiral and I have been crying and can't get out of bed since. Just feeling worse and worse, piling shame on top of shame. I've been good for months but my mental health feels totally derailed. Don't know what I'm asking really, just suffering and needed to vent.
