My own fault.
Isolating myself from people. Cutting off friends... throwing them away.

My loneliness tears me up inside and makes it that much easier to hate myself and to continue pushing people away.
I can't see it any other way. I am convinced I dont deserve love or friendship. That I am unworthy of these things. It hurts. I hurt myself this way. I dont know how to change or to stop.
Isolation kills.

I tend to do the same thing. I deal a lot with social anxiety, so that plays a big role in my self-isolation. I get to the point where I want to do something, but when I get the courage to go, I think, "WHY did I do this to myself?". I am seeing a therapist for this. First session is Wednesday. I think therapy would be a good thing for you as well.
