  happens to everyone lizzy the trick is not to care too much. do care, but not to the point where you let them upset you every time. i used to have a friend who self-harmed etc and i used to get well upset every time, and they would say they'd stop. but they never did. so what happened was i stopped caring so much - yeh when she told me i was still like "oh dear" and gave her my sympathy but i didnt let her upset me anymore. it was her life.
  
  anyway, you can't do anything except get on with your own life - if she needs help then you should give it freely, but not at the expense of your own feelings and emotional stability (ie don't become dependant or make it out to be really important)
  
  Hope things get better for you
