My friends are making me feel like a burden they are telling me to go away and they say no when I ask to hang out with them. It’s just tearing me apart. I hate myself so much at the moment. I feel like I’ve been abandoned. @Jacques - am safe

i know the pain and hurt friends can bring us, i have not had any friends IRL for over 20 years, it was so much hard work, they stayed around when they where getting things, when i refused they abandoned me, it is so hard to find a true friend, i have found a friend now who is the most amazing person, keep looking @Fluttershy1 there are amazing people out there, we ust have to work extra hard to find them.
im not sure how old you are but i find virtual friends while playing games help me a lot, i use a program called discord, they have all different types, you can talk and video chat.
maybe something to look into?

Hi @Fluttershy1
I'm sorry to hear you're having a tough evening 😕 It is so hurtful when we feel that from people we consider friends, people we hope to feel safe with. I hope you know that you are so valued here 💚
I wonder if there is a way you can help yourself feel a bit more safe and loved from within tonight? I know, for me, I try to be gentle and kind to myself when I am feeling vulnerable and abandoned as it's usually a time I can be so harsh and critical of myself.
Do take care @Fluttershy1
And to answer your q from earlier - I never got into the classic pokemon but I sense you might be slowly recruiting us 😉
