She asks if she can come over because she doesnt want to go home ,,, i know she's going to come over a ball of anxiety and it causes me anxiety just knowing shes comming over which does not help me at all,, she is my very best friend,, but she will just text and ask if she can come over ,, i cant say no ,, but i need to know how to shield myself from taking on her stress or being stressed out by her visit ,, any suggestions ,,, telling her she cant come over isnt an option
all true thank you all,,, just seems like anxiety rules this disease or vice versa,, all in all it was a nice visit even it un expected/scheduled,, i dont know why someone comming into my space causes so much anxiety sometimes

Maybe after she has left try something relaxing like meditation or listening to your favourite music. This will help you de-stress
Maybe tell her you’re not feeling well and can’t really manage a face to face but be open to phone chat or face timing......??? Depends on whether or not this is less stressful for you but it may result in her giving you some space. Good luck, it’s a tricky one. 🤗
That is a hard one. If she is truly a good friend she should understand if you explain it to her.
In order to help your friend you need to keep it together first. You can tell your friend you feel down and you are not a good company right now. Change the location of your meetings, take walks together, you go over, take control of how and when you want your meetings with your friend. Perhaps you initiate on your terms.
People change with time, energy level, interest, need for socialization. You are still friends just the dynamics are changing.
