I am really angry and disappointed with one of my friends, who just seems to be having a difficult time supporting me in no matter what I do. Frankly, I think she has to feel superior to me. She constantly compares me to her son (God bless him) who has had drug and alcohol problems. He also smokes. He has the drug and alcohol problems in remission. My background is similar to his, except I gre up in foster care and without drug and alcohol problems, although I have bipolar disorder that I also seem to be handling better than he does. I have three master degrees and want to go to school to be a psychiatric nurse practitioner. She told me that she will not write me a letter of recommendation and was dreading the day that I asked, although I had yet to ask. She made the commemt that her son counts out pills. I made the comment that I would rarelt have to. She got mad at me, saying I didn't really want to do what the job required. Her son volunteers at a clinic and doesn't have a GED. She has a PhD, and I originally got to know her as a professor. I don't know where this friendship is headed. It makes me sad. I need her support.
