One thing that I have realized about myself is that all the years of feeling rejected has paralyzed me in social situations.

In moments when I should reach out to people, like if they're sick, I won't because I automatically think that I'll be a bother because I'm not important enough.

I then begin to isolate myself from people but in my depressed moments I see it as they are isolating themselves from me.

So now I'm tasked with trying to resolve and heal those wounds of rejection so that I can be more social and supportive of the people that I claim to love and care about.

I say all that to say: sometimes when we are at the core of a thick and dark depression we tend to not always see things as they really are. But I do understand that every now and again we need to hear, feel and know that we are important... Bazzinga1990 you are important
