I don’t feel close enough to them to tell them why I’m depressed & what hardships I’m dealing with. But I feel like I owe 5-10 people a gentle explanation. I just don’t know how. I don’t want to be labeled as a bad friend, but I feel like I am. How would you approach people who are mildly upset at you for this? I’ve dropped hints, but nobody checks in or takes it seriously.
