Good day. I am the Yaya tree.
I am pleased to be of assistance in addressing the challenges you are currently facing.
From the information provided in the original post, it can be surmised that the source of frustration is not a lack of desire to maintain a friendship with the individual in question, but rather the presence of significant interpersonal challenges and disagreements when the two parties interact. These conflicts and disagreements tend to be complex and challenging to resolve.
For example, the subject states, "This kind of thing has occurred again recently, approximately five times in total. After conversing with the object of interest, the latter asserted that the subject exhibited schizophrenic behavior. The object of interest further stated that the relationship was no longer a priority."
From this sentence, it can be inferred that the desire to communicate with the individual in question is present, yet the results of such communication appear to be unsatisfactory.
I would like to inquire of the questioner whether, in the aftermath of such conflicts, communication is typically initiated. Furthermore, I am curious as to the nature of such communication.
The question thus arises as to whether communication will result in a resumption of the relationship.
From my own experience, I can identify the following causes of this problem:
First and foremost, when individuals spend an extended period of time with someone they know well, the shortcomings of the other person, as well as the role and state that must be maintained in the relationship over time, tend to persist.
During my tenure at the university, I also encountered the phenomenon of fatigue in my roommates after prolonged cohabitation. This was due to the fact that numerous conflicts and emotions would emerge following extended periods of shared living. In the event that neither party is able to effectively navigate these conflicts or if the proposed resolutions prove ineffective, and recurring disputes persist, the experience can be highly exhausting and exasperating.
Secondly, the subject displays a plethora of emotional and challenging triggers within their mind, and lacks sufficient knowledge regarding these emotions and triggers.
In instances where a roommate introduces a topic that evokes discomfort, it may prove challenging to articulate one's feelings directly. Consequently, the individual may resort to ignoring the situation and attempting to cope with the emotional distress it causes. This behavior may lead the roommate to perceive the other person as unstable and inexplicable. Over time, this dynamic can intensify feelings of distrust and foster a sense of mutual boredom and dissatisfaction. When these emotions remain unresolved over an extended period, they can contribute to a growing distance in the relationship.
The dormitory is a highly dense social environment, and it is not possible to avoid it. One is required to reside in it on a daily basis, yet one does not feel positive about it. This can result in feelings of hatred and loathing towards one's roommates. In fact, one may experience hatred towards the relationship and a sense of loathing towards the dormitory environment itself.
It is unclear whether my analysis and description are an accurate reflection of the situation.
Subsequently, I will present potential strategies for addressing this situation.
It is recommended that you identify a method for maintaining a certain degree of distance from your roommates.
In the event that neither party is adequately equipped to navigate such conflicts, a sense of distance can serve to mitigate the occurrence of unnecessary conflicts and contradictions.
Additionally, you indicated that you are a senior student. Based on my observations, individuals in their final years of studies tend to be occupied with their own pursuits, leading to a reduction in their interaction with roommates compared to their experiences during their first and second years. This presents an opportunity to provide you with a degree of autonomy and independence from your roommates, should you desire it.
Secondly, should you so desire, you may explore further, foster a positive relationship with your roommates, and pay close attention to their words, as they can easily evoke strong emotions.
I recall that during my college years, I experienced significant distress when my roommates made disparaging remarks about me. This was due to the fact that, prior to that, I had frequently been the subject of ridicule by my parents. Consequently, when individuals of a similar age spoke to me in an impolite, dismissive, or teasing manner, I would become visibly upset and give the impression that I was moody. However, in retrospect, I have come to understand that these reactions were actually related to some traumatic experiences I had endured in the past. At the time, I was unable to comprehend this, and I attributed my emotional responses to the individuals with whom I was living in the dormitory.
Individuals who have experienced significant trauma in their past may exhibit heightened sensitivity and irritability in their relationships, as well as a tendency to be easily provoked.
Furthermore, without self-exploration, it is impossible to understand the underlying causes of one's persistent negative affect, susceptibility to the emotional distress of others, and the inability to effectively convey one's unhappiness when distressed. In the absence of introspective inquiry, individuals may resort to maladaptive coping mechanisms, such as ignoring or sulking, which can lead to the deterioration of interpersonal relationships.
It is therefore crucial to investigate the underlying causes of one's emotional state. Should one have the requisite time, it would be beneficial to consult with a qualified counselor or consultant. Alternatively, one may choose to postpone this endeavor until after graduation, when one has secured a stable position and the necessary resources to do so. It is important to note that this is a viable option.
It is my hope that the advice I have provided will prove beneficial to you. Having experienced a similar situation, I am able to offer insights into the matter at hand and encourage you to make positive changes.
I wish you the best of success.

I understand how challenging it can be to navigate these feelings and interactions. It sounds like you're experiencing a lot of emotional strain, and it's important to address this. Perhaps starting with open conversations about your feelings could help clear some misunderstandings between you and your friends. Additionally, seeking guidance from a counselor or a therapist might provide you with tools to better manage these emotions and improve your relationships.
It must be really tough going through this, especially as a senior when there's already so much pressure. I think reaching out for professional support could be beneficial. They can offer strategies for coping with stress and conflict. Also, consider talking hearttoheart with a trusted friend or family member; sometimes sharing what you're going through can lighten the load and give you new perspectives.
Feeling this way can be overwhelming, and it's great that you're looking for ways to change the situation. Maybe setting boundaries and being honest about your feelings can prevent future misunderstandings. It might also help to engage in activities that bring you joy or relaxation. Remember, it's okay to seek help, whether from a teacher, counselor, or a mental health professional, they are there to support you.
