Are you avoiding time with family and friends?

Sometimes we need to be alone to process our grief, but if this feeling persists and you find yourself avoiding spending time with your loved ones, consider why.

I`m not the best at socialising but I do enjoy getting out with friends.

this is a difficult question to answer. There’s sometimes when I avoid both family & friends & there are times when I see them but hate being there & I’ll suffer later on for making myself go. & there are times when I love there company.

I tend now to stand back & watch rather than be in the middle. I always have an escape route planned.

There’s a saying that struck me as so true. I’m never less alone than when I’m on my own. I guess this is what I feel when I see ‘complete’ families. Although I know that no family are without problems but thats how it feels sometimes.

I think with me its seeing people for short bursts that I can walk away from if I need to.
