Not sure if this is bpd related but I just suck at comforting people. I have a friend who talks to me and has really intense emotions/reactions as well. I just don’t know how to react and my mind goes blank. I really feel his pain and feel upset as well but I don’t know what to say?? He called me crying and I just panicked. Maybe it’s because i don’t have any long term friendships. I just don’t understand how I can be so emotional yet be so unhelpful when someone else is going through it? I feel like bpd experience should help me not hurt me here and I’m just looking for advice or insight.
