There is something to be said for living alone for awhile. Maybe seek therapy and stay out of romantic relationships for awhile and focus on friendships.
Thank you for your reply! I have been in therapy before, but largely for other issues, like bulimia. I have tried seeing 2 therapists during the time I was in my last relationship, but I am not sure if I was honest with either of them or told them the right details or what. Both of them encouraged me to do what you said, but it's hard when being alone is my absolutely worst fear and I literally have no support system here.

Please let me know if you have suggestions on specific types of therapists/therapies to look into. I live in a somewhat smaller town, but I think there are a lot of online therapists these days.
