  • It sounds like she is trying to isolate herself from others. This is a negative coping mechanism (link below) and can lead to further problems and emotional distress such as depression. If I were you, I would continue to stick by her during this difficult period in her life. When (if) she finally finishes dealing with this problem, it will be devastating for her to realize that she has no friends and no one who cares about her because she pushed them away when she needed them most. Know that she doesn't have a problem with you, but the stress that she is under is stretching into other areas of her life. It is important that someone be by her side throughout all of this, and when her ordeal is over. http://www.whatisptsd.com/negative.html
