I feel that way a lot too—the "I just don't care anymore" thing.

I've had a lot of negative experiences in the past that have led me to think this way, but sometimes it takes a lot of patience to push through them. But you can push through them if you try. Not trying means you won't push through.

While I don't know who JB is either, try not to put your happiness in other people. I know that sounds like a huge asshole thing to say right now, but if we rely on others to make us happy, then we become emotionally wrecked when they're not around.

I've had no friends for quite some time because everyone leaves me too. I know that awful feeling. I've lost over 30 friends throughout my lifetime and I'm only 27. I just push everyone away.

But sometimes part of my problem (not necessarily your problem) is getting too close and attached to people. So I've learned that the more I keep my distance,the happier and healthier I am. I rely on my hobbies and interests to make me happy. Texting a few people on this forum is a "nice addition" for me, but not a core coping mechanism.

So my advice is to focus on YOU, not on other people. If they want to leave you, then they've lost a good friend and they're missing out. Plus, if they leave you for a b.s. reason like going to the hospital, then how good of a friend are they REALLY? But to reiterate, if you can make yourself happy on your own, then you will feel more at peace.
