Advice Needed: Longtime friend has been emotionally unstable since coming out as trans

I was you a bunch of years ago, and Maura was a woman not a MTT, but the dynamics sound the same. Constant phone calls about how unlovable she is, how she is hurting herself, how she will hurt herself.

It was really tough, almost everyone else who was dealing with this person tagged out and it ended up being just me "the strong one" who didn't feel like I could do that. What if I stopped answering and she offed herself? How would I be able to live with myself?

I called an ambulance on her 3 times, I called her doctor and I called the Samaritans. I also talked to her local mental health clinic and they pushed her appointment up. She was eventually diagnosed with Borderline personality disorder.

It all stopped when my wife told her: "get over yourself. It is enough. Stop lying, stop feeling sorry for yourself, live your life" I thought for sure she would kil herself after that but somehow either this, or therapy, or drugs or a bit of all of it worked and she did get on with her life. I do not speak to her anymore, but I can see from facebook that she is travelling and seems ok (she was always very facebook dramatic).
