This is gonna be another multiparter, so strap in!
>Thank you for the long response siganon, I appreciate it.
It's my pleasure, genuinely. I hope some of the things I pointed you towards in the first round were helpful!
>All she does is play Warframe and when we hang out that's all she wants to do
Ah, a friend with very one note interests, got sucked into that particular game. How does she react when you tell her you would like to do something else? What else does she do?
>She also recently went off her meds and has become more emotionally volatile again.
Has she given any reason why? A lot of the time people make the mistake of "I am obviously okay now, I don't need [do thing that made things better] anymore - why are things getting worse?". It's rough to acknowledge such cycles if they happen, or perhaps she has a concrete plan and hopes that after the withdrawal phase wears off she can self regulate better?
Also, it's awesome you made a new friend.
>but then got depressed and the idea of leaving the house feels terrifying.
depression is like that, yeah.. but not leaving the house sadly can feed into depression which in turn will make it harder still. I'm sure FFS will help but of course you will still have to expose yourself to fear/discomfort of going out.
>it makes me feel suffocated and want to push them away.
So you detach when people get too close in friendships and hyper attach in romantic settings. I'm definitely curious if the attachment related resources are gonna be of any help. Can you expand upon those feelings of suffocation? Have you ever looked into AvPD? I can't diagnose people but coping techniques for it might resonate with you. I don't wanna imply you have it just from this though.
