Concerned about losing people

I have Anxiety and Depression and recently I am really worried that all my friends are just going too leave me. Even those ones that are close, trusting and caring.

I also think my constant low periods will make people frustrated and that maybe my paranoid state of mind will end up driving them away. One of m pay friends has started to be less friendly towards me recently. It was a quick change from being real friend to someone who I have to hey too several times before they acknowledge me.

Maybe that's just one person but I am also freinds with her sister which makes me believe that she will turn the same way.

I'm not sure what to do about this and want to know if it is in fact possible to drive friends away through being paranoid or maybe having trust issues. Any advice would be very much appreciate.

I understand. But in my fear I ended up being the one who ignorred them and not the other way around.

That's another thing I'm concerned about maybe I will drive people away through ignoring them or refusing to meet.

You can only do your best,the chances are they think better of you than you think they do.

I try to make the most of the companionship I get when I do. In my experience, most people drift away from most people. I hope you find the one or two friends who "stick closer than a brother" and get some encouragement from the rest.

I feel that way about myself. On a previous thread there was something about if your depression is driving people away from you. I chimed in saying that I think it did. I've noticed that some people who were nice to me have just stopped being nice to me. So I wonder if I have done something wrong. Maybe I bring people down more than I think I do.

However, lately, I feel like I am getting sick of my only friend that I have. I've been feeling very depressed after talking to him a lot lately over the phone. We hardly get together anymore. We've been friends for four years now. That's about the average "shelf life" I've had with my guy friends over the years. He and I disagree on almost everything. It seems like he shames me when I tell him how I feel.

I wonder what he sees in me? I hang on to him because he's all that I got, plus he has been helpful to me. I asked him one time, "what do you like about me?" He couldn't come up with anything. There are times when I feel like I might be in a toxic relationship.

I'm always concerned that I'll be left.

Maybe your 1 real friend isn't such a friend after all. Ironically it is the people who I have known for a short while who have been there for me. In truth some concern is correct as friends drift apart or they use you but I know which ones are here too stay.

In my case I think it's more to do with paranoid but some people who say they are my friends just judge.

I hope you can find a true friend shortly
