There are two kinds of popular the kind that everyone looks up to the one in the in-crowd but that really does not have many friends and the one that knows everyone and everyone else knows and likes often not in the in-crowd and only has 1 or 2 real friends.
Just think even the popular people don't have a million friends just a million people they know.
Hi teen-anxiety,
You are exactly right with what you say, I used to hang out with 30 people when I was about 17 I was liked at school because I was also known for sorting out the bullies in the whole school even if they were older than me, nobody should get away with that sort of behaviour but you need also know what is going on in their world ie at home if they too are getting bullied, I now only have a couple of friends I know I can really talk to and know they have my best interests at heart and vise versa, you can have a lot of acquaintances but you only need a couple of good friends. Stay safe, you can upload a a free daily affirmation by download DailyOM, breathing exercises are very good for you which you can get how to do with with the help of a free app in your App Store, which gives you meditations, sleep talkes, sleep music and help with anxiety, good luck 🤞
