Stand Alone!

[Rani G2]

I always had a problem about being emotionally needy. I always idealized isolation, survival of the individual. No illusions, No depending on others to give me security. Its there, I want Others approval, I want others to like me (A very human quality I guess), I want my relatives to care for me, but they really dont. What really eats my mind off, is the fact that I need “them“. I see that as weakness, I want to not want others.

I have isolated myself, and dont meet much people except at work.

My trying to harden myself, to stay private doesnt bring me anywhere.

While isolating yourself can protect you, it also keeps out the good things in life. It's normal to want to be independent, and while you can be, you don't have to be. I understand that family will not always be there for you. So make your own family of friends. You don't owe an unsupportive family anything, but you don't deserve to be alone. You'll make it through this <3
