I can't do it. It's really so difficult when you push literally everyone away the moment they start to play nice.
Everything they do gives me a reason to end our friendship. I push everybody away and I know there's a fog in my head but I can't, I really can't see past it.

hmm like when they're nice to me, I feel like they're messing with me

#

I feel like they don't know what's going on

sick lichen
#

Have you tried telling them?

fathom anchor
#

so I avoid those people as best as possible

#

So what outcome are you looking for or is this more of a vent?

fathom anchor
#

I really don't know what can help me

#

but I am very sure telling them is not gonna do anything

sick lichen
#

Well what's your end goal

#

You want to not push people away?

fathom anchor
#

I wanna have a clear mind

#

to make decisions rationally

#

and not push people away for no good reason

#

It sounds like you just have trust issues

#

I have them too so I understand

#

It's hard to trust peoples true intentions especially online

fathom anchor
#

I don't have any online friends

#

all these people are offline

#

when they smile at me it gives me the ick

sick lichen
#

Is it possible you just don't like these people?

fathom anchor
#

I don't think so

#

I think I don't have any capacity to think about that because my fear overpowers everything

sick lichen
#

That's fair it sounds like you just need to overcome your fear somehow

#

Like it's consuming you and ruining your friendships

#

Maybe telling them isn't the best but besides that I don't really know how to help I'm sorry

#

sometimes the question is whether it's really worth it

#

why am I cracking my head over people of all things?

#

why does it matter?

#

why should I bother?

sick lichen
#

That depends some people don't need others in life some people do

#

Which are you

fathom anchor
#

I really don't know

#

I wanna say I don't need anyone
