I feel so stuck and anxious

@basilcandle hey im so glad you could speak up about it. I've felt that way too. Anxious for not having good friends, then worried that maybe i am not a good friends as everyone else got along a lot well and only I couldn't be able to. Then I'd self doubt if I'll ever find a good friend in my life, if I'll always be lonely. But one thing that stuck with the entire time was, myself. What i mean is, sometimes when surrounded by certain people, i felt a lot more comfortable and easy going than with lets say my school friends. So when i noticed how fun i can be, i realised that the fault isn't in me. And though this doesn't necessarily mean the fault lies in my friends, it did so in my case. So what I'd say simply is that, know yourself, trust yourself then just be yourself, confidently and no one can ever hurt you. Since you're too good for those who don't know how to cherish you. You're lovely and precious. Know that. Proudly. Hope this helps. And hope you're feeling better now.
