  • I find it hard, but try some introspection to find what your mental and physical needs are (hobbies, bodily movement, experiencing nature, whatever it may be) and then see how you can meet those needs on your own.

    Once you start to get a better grasp on yourself and your own needs without external validation, youll be closer to the zone of “happy on my own/loving yourself”.

    Then you can start to fit someone else into the picture, be it a romantic partner or more friends.

    If you do have any close friends you know you can trust, lean on them. Tell them where you are mentally, and let them know they don’t need to be there always, but when you’re in the shits they will be better prepared to support you

    And always remember, baby steps are still steps forward. (Also, if you have access to therapy/counseling, please reach out to someone professional)
