When supporting a friend through mental health struggles becomes overwhelming

My closest friend has been struggling with depression for months and I want to help but I'm also starting to feel drained from always being the one she calls when things are bad. I don't want to abandon her but I also don't know how to set boundaries without feeling guilty.

More people experience this than they realize.
