Lately, I have been not wanting to do much at all..I don't feel like going to school or really doing much.
One of my "best" friends is still changing. She is now smoking and getting a tounge piercing. She is also now wearing skimpier outfits when she goes out..when usually she just dressed casual. Now she is somewhat obsessive with smoking already and she just started recently. Like before, she is slowly depleting from being one of my close friends..mainly because she is turning into something I can't believe.
I only have one best friend in my eyes..And this best friend I can rarely see because he lives far. Now that I am in pain, who am I to turn to, to talk to besides God? I don't have anyone else really. And I don't feel comfortable opening up that quickly with people.
I feel my strive to do great is depleting. Like, I feel no urge to really do well in school since I am completely lost on what my calling is. I feel I should be a social worker, but now I am not sure. I just wish things were the way they were. I wish my other best friend was still around the corner from me at my church, and not at another parish. Usually he knew exactly how to make me feel better when I was in a rut.
Now I am pretty much sitting here, and confused on what to do.I feel I should call my best friend (now when I say best friend it only refers to the priest I know). But I know he has a lot going on where he is.
what to do.

sorry you are going through such a difficult time at the moment. it can be really hard when friends change on us, especially when they change drastically in ways that seem unfamiliar to us = as the first friend you mentioned seems to be doing. It can be hard also, to open up to people - it takes time establishing trust and finding people that will provide the right mixture of friendship and advice/encouragement etc. that we need. From what you said, it sounds like you do still have one good friend - i hope that you will be able to call him and chat and that that will help you. God is an amazing friend to have; and a great source of comfort ..... i know it is also nice to have those "friends with skin on" as well. Praying for you now in your friendships and that the depression you are feeling will lift = and that others will come into your life who will bless and encourage you and who you in turn will also bless and encourage! God bless you
