The same thing happened to me in high school. I thought they all hated me and didn’t want to be abandoned by friends again so I isolated myself. Even though we were friends for years they gave up on me pretty quickly. I’m still not sure how they felt about me. My mom says I’m being paranoid. This was probably pretty unhelpful I didn’t mean it to be. I just started remembering. Overall my advice is no matter your fear just don’t isolate yourself it doesn’t help at all.
They wouldn’t be your friends if that was the case
me too. even if all logic points to the contrary.
That makes me think of the song “Afraid” by “The Neighbourhood”! I love singing along to it and yelling the curse words, especially when my OCD has me afraid of so many similar things. I find music SUPER helpful for getting me through tough times, and songs like this reinforce the idea that “I’m not alone” in regards to my feelings and experiences because obviously the artist has experienced this too, so maybe listening to the song and singing along might be helpful. ??♀️
That’s the exact reason I fell in love with musical theatre (specially Dear Evan Hansen)
@ipulledagracie Same!
I’ve finally given up on having friends. No one cares for me as much as I care for them. It’s a horrible feeling. So horrible I’d rather be alone ??♀️.
I don’t really have many friends and I feel like everyone I know hates me and idk if it’s part of my ocd or just other anxiety or depression but it makes me very sad :(
I’ve never had a single friend that is 100% body positive towards me. Everyone tries to get under my skin even when I go out of my way to lift them up. Should i just block and cut off everyone? I don’t see the point in caring about anyone anymore
