So, I've been friends with this dude for a while. We would message a lot, He's like an older brother to me.

Mid last year my mental health was deteriorating *fast.* And it still is pretty downhill. The dude would frequently ignore my messages despite being online (which is a big trigger for my anxiety and can cause bad episodes.) and then appear again talking about how he's such a bad friend and it won't happen again. I'm very aware that no one needs to spend 100% of their time on me but it would go on for months at a time where he'd actively ignore my messages.

During one of those periods he, out of no where, sent me an image saying he had just overdosed and was being taken to hospital. Now, being who I am with my mental health, I'm very easily triggered. It triggered me so bad that I had to be removed from class and couldn't focus in any of my others. He didn't send anything else and to my memory didn't talk to me for a while after that either. 
Finally at some point, I was sick of being ignored and just dropped him. Removed him from all my social media and didn't talk to him for a while.

That is, until I opened my school email a couple months ago during the summer holidays. I had a message one of my school accounts for some website we were using in one of my classes a couple years ago. It was a message from him. I reconnected and we seem okay now.

I'm disturbed that he searched all around the internet and messaged my school account just to get to me. I dropped him for my own health, as my safety came first to me and being actively ignored or possibly triggered was a big thing keeping me from being safe. Again, things seem okay now, we're friends again I guess but I still lay awake at night wondering if what I did was wrong or not.

In hindsight, the way I dropped him was a bit scary in his shoes. I think he though I had gone and offed myself, which wasn't an unlikely possibly at the time.

So, *am* I in the wrong, if it was to keep myself safe?
