a little lonely
my anxiety and depression hit me really hard last year, and since then i have been by myself alot. Before that I had plans basically every weekend, i hung out with the same group of people every weekend. i stayed with them for a lot of years because i was afraid of what would happen if i left, that i would not have any friends. looking back i realize that i was miserable a lot around them, mostly because i stayed with them out of fear, although i did love them sometimes. So since about a year ago i have hardly hung out with them, or talked to them. there are a few that i still am friends with, but i feel like most of the people who i called my best friends just kind of faded out of my life at that point. Now i feel like i am making friends, and enjoy their company, but i am still anxious about making plans and so i stay home a lot on the weekends, and right now i am just feeling a little lonely even though i know my social life won't be like this forever. So yeah i just wanted to vent a little bit, sorry there wasn't really a point to this post

Please remember that, in spite of the warm Christmas movies and all the decorations, that Christmas and winter can make us feel very lonely. One of the best medicines to is visit someone who is lonely - like a nursing home - or doing something for someone else in need.
God Bless You and know that your friends are fortunate to have you in their lives!
