Does anyone fear people leaving them when they are at their worst with their obsessive thinking? I am anxiously attached to my friends and fear they will leave me when I’m struggling, which increases my obsessions. When I ask for reassurance from friends (usually fixing something I said) I feel guilty and think I need more reassurance..but the vicious cycle continues. Stopping the vicious cycle in my relationships takes ALL of my energy right now- but I want to trust that people in my life will not leave me at my worst when even my best efforts are not great. I guess this is not always a given. Maybe the people that truly are meant to be there stay through our ups and downs.I sure hope so but just feeling so darn fearful and wondering if anyone can relate! Glad for this community that understands the struggle.
