After all these years I still tend to hang with people that don't really like me. My head can tell me that I can change the opinion of me, but of course not everyone is going to like you. But it's those that don't particular care for that I spend most time with. Probably trying to fix my past where I was the black sheep.
Any ideas on what I can tell myself so I can just walk away from those that really aren't my closest? Last edited by Therapy reviewed; Apr 11, 2023 at 04:54 AM.. |

I wish I knew how to help you with this but sadly I am at a loss. Sometimes psychiatrists and psychologists post helpful tips on a variety situations. Maybe you could do an internet search along the lines of........how to stop hanging around friends who make one feel bad.
Maybe this is not helpful. Sometimes it is difficult to know how to be helpful. I hope other members here will see your post and have good idea. I used to hang around people who were not good for and then I found better friends. Don't remember the dynamics of this anymore. It could have been just dumb luck. So sorry I cannot be helpful to you. I hope you will find some true friends who will treasure you as a person! |

Try making new friends at school. Take some classes like an art class or something like that. Do volunteer work, join meetup.com. Find friends on nextdoor.com. Ask people to introduce you to their friends. Meet people online too. It’s hard to make friends, but if I can do it, then so can you. I’m shy, introverted & I have social anxiety. Maybe you feel like you can’t do any beyyer? Maybe it’s easier to stay in your comfort zone? It’s possible thst you’re sticking with what’s familiar? You were used to being the black sheep growing uo. |
