I’m done

When others feel bad I want to be with them and help them and see them happy. When I’m feeling bad I learned to berate myself but am relearning now to be my own best friend. I am tired of being around people. This is because I’m tired of getting hurt. I just want to be alone endlessly. i refuse to give up in life but for now I just can’t take the pain anymore and I just think I need to suffer alone for a bit. But I do not plan on keeping suffering. I still have a sliver of hope. I’ve got to just do my own thing for a while and distance myself from everyone. I just can’t handle anything right now. Everything seems to be coming straight at me fast and hard. It’s hard to explain. I’m so done.

Has anyone ever felt this way? Like not caring to interact with those close to you in your life? Just tired of everything and need a big change?

I get people weary all the time. I hate the introvert label but maybe that is it. It isn’t not caring …it is caring for yourself. No rules on that.

Yes. I come to HealthUnlocked every day. I can't bear sharing ME with anyone. I guess I don't want to be rejected for how damaged I am. People want to see change, improvement. Heck, I want that. Wanting ain't getting.

I was always an introvert. Groups of people stress me. There's that, too.

Right there with you sister. I have always liked to fly solo. Socializing is not my thing.

Flowers for you

Ok this is freaky..... I do Wordle every day and that was todays word ! Oops hope I didn't give it away. Process of elimination on the letters. I had to look up the meaning.

Oh those are not mine. I saw them on a walk. I don't do plants. That's what landscapers are for haha. If that was mine you would see nothing but a stem.

I found it. It's beyond me. Amazing you can do that.

It was beyond my comprehension too. Took practice but you just start with any word and fill in the blanks.

But when a word pops up like today's it sheer luck. You would have gotten it because you know the word. I just thought I was making something up

Heck Yes!

There are times I wouldn't care if an asteroid hit if it kept people away from me and I have a tee shirt which shows a very frightened dragon saying 'Ew! People'

Yes, I can be a very anti-social Be'ach when I'm not in the mood for people!

Cheers. Midori

hey it's totally normal

sometimes u just want to be alone so u dont have to think about anything for a second and just relax and let your thoughts dissolve themselves so u don't feel like suffocating.

or u want to think and analyze about everything thats happening around u and what r u feeling or doing about it or wat do u wanna do about it ,,

or u r just annoyed about everything and angry too so u just avoid everything right u dont want to hurt anyone or u dont want to open up..
