My bestfriend/ex-gf is dealing with very severe mental health issues. They have been dealing with such issues for a while but since the pandemic and our disastrous relationship attempt, they have only gotten worse. I have my own mental health issues and understand that depression/anxiety can persist for many reasons and even occur unprovoked. However, after our romantic relationship collapsed, I was there only real support and I did everything to try and help. I listened, and tried to learn after every mistake, I temporarily quit my job as a video game commentator and even stopped competing, I would spend my free time(whatever was leftover from not spending time with them) reading on how I could do better as a friend and support person. I set them up with a therapist at the clinic I attend since their own parents disregard their child's mental health. My own mother and therapist even offered help and support to try and get them through this struggle. I went through sleepless nights and days almost neglecting my own life to help my best friend.

The tough part is that while doing all this, they have progressive began treating me with disrespect and personal attacks. I'm no angel, I'm a bit of a tone deaf introvert and can say some controversial or divisive shit. That said I never purposely say or do anything with the intent to offend or degrade others. The thing is that with each week it seemed like some action would send them over the edge. Missing a phone call, not being in agreement on an opinion, making decisions in my life that have no effect on them, even accidental KS in league would lead to self harm, insults, guilt trips, threats of suicide and even a suicide attempt. I have given this person, who I still love, 3 months of my life in nonstop help and attention, even against everyone's suggestions to stop. I feel like I have given everything I can and even then more. I feel stuck and trapped.
