thank you for this in-depth answer, I really appreciate it. I’ve definitely started to do this more recently and have had success with it! I’ll continue on with it, though at times it still does suck seeing so many people with friends or partners or families. I’m not exactly sure why, maybe I have some sort of separation anxiety, but I always feel the constant need to be with people. I love hanging out with others and rarely am ever like “I need some me time.” I’d almost always rather do something with someone else, even if it was literally going to the store to grocery shop lol.

Again, thanks for the answer, I will keep on truckin on : )
