Why does my friend keep asking me to hang out since my mom died?

[Anonymous]

She said she would give me space but she keeps asking to hang out. I mean I’m glad she’s reaching out but I’m so sick of the same questions like, “How are you holding up?” Or “How are you doing?
we haven’t hung out since December 2023 and it’s been a while. I just didn’t want a grieve every time we hung out. I just want to be alone, well not all the time. I’m afraid that I’m going to cry when we’re out and have fun. Her sister said to give me time and don’t push me.
I’ll figure out when I wanna hang out againZ

Some people try to help others but they are poorly trained and hurt rather than help the person they love. I’ve had people mistreat me while trying to help me and I think I might have done that to somebody I was trying to help at least once. My friend said, you might be furious with this person for how they behaved but one thing that might help you forgive is keeping in mind that they mean well, they just don’t know what they are doing. Also, a friend told me you can release stress without discussing your trauma, just by socializing with a caring person and talking about other things.

tell your friend you are feeling overwhelmed with people always asking those questions and would just like to be left alone for a bit and will text when you're ready.
