I figure I am a 'needy' friend because I often cannot be alone and when I get tired of being around family or vice versa, I often rely on my friends to keep me occupied. Lately I have been hanging out with a friend who just got back into town. We have hung out every day for about five days now, and I know when he starts his job I won't be able to pick him up every day and I am dreading that day because I know it will cause me to go back into my depression, but there's not a lot I can do about it. When I am alone at home with my son, I often get panicy, like I don't have any clue what to do with myself. Even if the house is a mess, the laundry is dirty, and the dishes need done, I'd still rather have someone come over or go to visit someone than be at home alone.
