My work schedule got changed so now I will have evenings free when I typically get off around 8pm. This causes panic because now I feel very alone/isolated/abandoned. I live alone, work alone and go to school online so social time is very important to me. Typically I schedule it 3 times a week, it’s part of my self care, but having evenings free practically every night makes me feel so empty, lonely, isolated and sad. I’m starting to feel a little crazy and impulsive(though I don’t act on it) and when people don’t text me back these feelings come up even more. In addition I’m starting to get real clingy to the guy I’m seeing and wanting him to talk to me all the time and panicking when he doesn’t.

Let me know if you can relate.
