I want to cut ties with my depressed friend, but I feel guilty.
I have shared a long-lasting friendship with this friend, but

At first, I had a strong desire to help my friend, but...
As time passes, I feel myself becoming increasingly more exhausted.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to accept my friend's feelings.
Among the sad stories, I am thinking about cutting off my depressed friends. I myself am gradually being engulfed by darker feelings.
As this situation keeps repeating, maintaining relationships with friends has become a source of great stress for me.
However, thinking about ending the relationship with my depressed friend, I also feel a surge of guilt.
Even though I know my friend is going through a difficult situation right now, leaving their side feels like a betrayal.
I also worry that if I ignore my friend, it will make things even harder for them.
In the midst of these complicated emotions, is it right to keep my distance from friends to protect myself?
I constantly wonder whether I should keep trying to help my friend until the very end.
Should I ultimately prioritize myself?
However, I feel heavy-hearted because it truly feels like betraying my friend.
How should I cut ties with a friend who has depression? ㅠㅠ
