Friends making depression worse, what to do?

There isn't much: information provided. How are friends making the depression worse? Perhaps if this could be clarified - a helpful response can be provided. Take care.

It's not clear how: you feel that your friends R making depression worse. Are they unsupportive of U? Do they question what U R feeling or tell U 2 just get over your depression. If so, U may need 2 surround yourself with people who R more empathetic. Talking with a therapist may help U decide whether they could become better friends with some help or need 2 B avoided. Stay away from alcohol if you are depressed.

It's hard, but...: the best thing is ask them to change the subject. If they are unwilling to do that, it's time for some distance until you are more stable.

What is motivation: If they are trying to make it worse to make themselves feel better, point that out and move on. Avoid them until they get the message. get help, go to therapy and explore meds. give yourself some time to find loving positive friends. Write a list of the qualities you value and focus on that as a way of attracting that to you. Be grateful its coming.

Friends not therapy: Friends are not therapists and don't know what to say or do. To expect friends to help your depression is to make them your providers which is an awesome and risky role that they are not trained for. In some cases "friends" can be downright nasty, but you need someone objective, eg a therapist, to help you identify this instead of it being aninnocent failure to know how to help.
