Hello this is my first post just wanted to get some thoughts out. I am so envious of people that have friends to talk to all the time. I think deep down I want to have friends and family around me all the time and that just can’t happen. Maybe social media and smartphones has distorted my sense of how often we should talk to friends and family. I wish I wasn’t the way I am pushing people away it’s just so difficult with my anxiety. I appreciate all the friends I have but I get hit by waves of loneliness when I haven’t talk to a friend or family member.
