Question:
A copy cat.. is it too far?
Well to start off i moved in with my best friend always bubbly but had her off days too just as anyone else. I started going through some rough times and she was really supportive of me and would accomany me to going to the doctors she would even come in the doctors room with me. So having nothing to hide from her i would go in detail with my doctor about my problems and after a few visits i was diagnosed with depression, anxiety, ocd and on top of that i have Agoraphobia. these all things that were in my family genes. so finally i was able to get it all under control months of medication trials. came down to a few and im doing alright but now my friend started to "repeat" the exact same issues ive been having but the thing is she will be all sad and then after a few seconds of her acting depressed shes back to her self laughing and cracking jokes... going out,,, and she clames to have Agoraphobia as well and if she had it she wouldent be leavng the house.

This is a rather common phenomenon most often exhibited when people study personality/mood disorders. People often take on, or rather, believe they are taking on such symptoms that are described.
You just have to ignore it.
