I can relate, sometimes I feel very apathetic and like I don’t love my friends. I have to remind myself that some sort of love is there, I just can’t see or feel it right now, like it’s hiding behind a wall. I know if my friends got hurt or left I would be upset. I believe love is always there, even if it’s small, we just can’t always feel or see it. I’m not trying to give you reassurance but the fact that you are worrying tells me you are a deeply empathetic person. Even if u aren’t worried in the moment you still have a heart and humanity. ❤️☮️ I hope you feel better soon
thank you 💜
It's never a good idea to self-diagnose. Since you're here even asking about it I really doubt you're in that personality disorder cluster. It takes alot to actually be diagnosed in the b cluster branch. We all go meet people and in the beginning it's all great but the more you spend time with them the more you see how they really are. We're actually not really compatible with alot of people that we actually get a real connection with. And also, iono how long you've had these friends. But we all grow and find our own way in life and alot of times how you grow is not the same way they are taking. It's natural to lose connections to people you've been really close with cause of the sheer fact the situations and goals in life has changed. Hopefully this helps and make it a bit easier for your mind
thank you. i’ve also realised a huge part of why i feel detached from my friends could be because i’m never ‘myself’ and i always keep my guard up. i always feel like i’m performing to avoid awkwardness when i socialise. whereas with family, i’m attached to them because i’m myself. not sure if this makes sense, but it gives me hope that i’m not a terrible doomed person!!
I feel kinda like this too
Very worried right now that I’m a narcissist! I fear that I only do good things for self gain / because I feel like I HAVE to. And that I don’t actually care about anyone or anything other than myself. Ugh!
i’m freaking out so much. i’ve been reading a lot about vulnerable / covert narcissism and i literally want to cry. these type of narcissists are introverted and sensitive and i am too. they’re also full of shame and i am too. and they want to be acknowledged which i do too. i feel so down when i’m left out. they also feel a lot of envy like me. i feel sick. i always thought not wanting to be the centre of attention made me LESS of a potential narcissist, but this new subtype of it has sent me spiralling so much. do these traits mean i’m a covert narcissist?!!! i’m so scared. i don’t think i’m entitled or super important... i just want to be enough and feel like i’m enough. i didn’t think that was narcissistic til reading all this stuff today. i’m generally a helper and try to be there for people to meet their needs. so i guess i just want people to look out for me aswell. but i read that these type of narcissists are like that too. i’m so upset rn, i don’t know what to do!!
Freaking out rn bc I took a Narcisst test on google, and it said severe…it mostly asked like cocky questions. I’m scared bc I don’t want to be one. I try to help others and always be there for them and now I have the worst anxiety about this. I have crippling anxiety rn this sucks 😭
