Anxiety is an issue most people experience, and it is a horrible feeling. However, there are a multitude of ways to move forward from our anxieties. I personally understand the feeling that you are going to be left alone, but you sometimes need to trust you gut feeling and listen to it when it tells you that you are loved by these people. Sometimes, the anxiety we will be left alone makes us push away the people we love the most, making ourselves our own worst enemy. It does get better, however you need to put yourself around the right people who give you that gut feeling that you are loved by them.

It sounds like you’re having trouble trusting people. I’ve never spent a day in your shoes so I can’t give advice that would help you specifically. But can I ask you, what would you tell a friend, or someone else close to you, to do if they just told you they felt this way? This can be a really good way to think about things from another perspective. Do you want to talk about what you think is causing you to believe everyone’s going to leave you? Or maybe what helps you feel better when you feel like this?

I am sorry that you feel this way. It sounds like you are experiencing some anxiety, remember to take a deep breathe and remind yourself that these thoughts mostly exist inside your head. I understand it can be scary and painful if you experienced something like this in the past, learn that this happens and that there is disappointment to find out there was no investment from the other side, but don't let that close your heart; instead of clinging to those who want to leave remind yourself that the people who are still by your side are there because they truly love and appreciate you, be open to meet new people who are willing to join you in friendship. There are alot of great people to connect with, give them a chance to get to know you :)

Sometimes you need to self reflect & ask yourself why you feel as if everyone would leave you , What may have possibly led up to that feeling , Do you suffer from abandonment or gone through a rough breakup recently to where it’s causing you to feel alone or may be anxious. Maybe do some coloring , painting , or any activity that may push that feeling away , as a stress reliever. Happiness & being calm is key & keeping phobias , anxiety’s , & bad feelings away is the goal & in any way if you can side track the feelings , you may or may not feel better if not then check out the 7 cups help guide

When you take small steps to be there for yourself, you will find that not only can you be there for yourself as if you WERE your own best friend, but that other people will begin to be there for you as well. It requires small steps and takes time, sometimes years, to build up the resilience to be there for yourself. As for the feeling that everyone is going to leave, it is important to re-focus that feeling onto yourself, and use self-talk that shows that even if everyone you know left, you, the deepest core of yourself, are still there. You can be your own safe space. Once this realization happens, you feel free to let others leave when they need to.

This is very common feeling that i use to feel more than a couple times a day! I know that feeling is horrible and i want you to know that yes people do leave and it hurts like crazy when they do but you will never be completely alone. Someone is always there you just got to look and you will find them. Having this feeling is a burden cause you feel you can't let anyone in because you are scared of once you let them in you will only get hurt, and i am here to say that you will get hurt sometimes but you have to learn and grow! You will find people along the way that won't hurt you and leave though!!!!

Have you thought about why you feel insecure ? Do you lack confidence ? What has happened i the past to make you feel this way ? Did one of your parents leave you ? Do you ever feel secure ? If so , what or who is around you at that time ? We all feel lonley and insecure at times . Get involved in a hobby or something you enjoy , with like minded people . Keep reaching out and finding supportive people . People that are available . Figure out what kind of people are healthy and safe .

This can be a difficult feeling to be faced with. While I am not here to give advice, as someone who as struggled through similar thoughts and feelings, talking through your situation can provide you with clarity and new mindset. It is easy as humans to continuously assume the worst, however, by reasoning through our problems it can help us realize that our anxieties are simply that - anxieties. Not realizations. Take some time and think about what leads you to feel this way, are there past experiences where individuals have left you that led you to this feeling? If so, what was the outcome? Could it have maybe been for the better? Chat with a listener about these!

I know that things like that could seem scary because many people who you think there always be fhere for you then disappear. But you can always count on them if they are real friends. Distance doesn't matter. My best friend last year has left me to continue his studies far away but he's still my best friend and I know I can count on him. So don't worry about people who leave you because they'll be always there for you. Try to find also new friends. I know that isn't simple but you have to know that you're not alone. Never.

At some points of our life, we will meet people we will like then get attached to them, but because of previous heartbreaks, we get a belief that everyone will end up leaving us. But the truth is, people don't necessarily leave, they just get busy with their lives, so the communication gets less than before or even diminish, and it's okay. It doesn't mean they forgot about you or intentionally left you. You, yourself as you grow up and as your life changes, you will become distant at some point, it's part of life. If you want to remain in touch with a certain person, find any activity you both like to do.
