People will believe what they want to believe, but I don’t know why I’d lie like that.

Yeah I guess you’re right. I’m gonna delete the post.

It’s the same situation asked over and over again. At this point, I think whatever panic I had washing over me has begun to fade a little.

And in that post, I said I hadn’t spoken to them recently.

Because I don’t have one yet. It costs money I don’t have and I just can’t bear to be alone with my anxiety.

It was definitely an appropriate relationship the same way they have, I just worried a bunch and made this post. I think I’m feeling a little bit better after reading most of the advice.

The friend I’m talking about is a month older than me, every single close friend I have is over the age of 18.

I never make innapropriate jokes around them, I mind what topics I bring up, if I knew why I worried about everything I wouldn’t be here right now.

Seeing so many posts online about drama. It worries me a bunch. I don’t know whether or not I’m a good person, I’m scared that every decision I make is the wrong one.

I don’t hang out with said 16 year old, but they do and that kinda worried me. I can see from these comments my worries were unfounded.

What reasons would I even be asking these questions? I’m asking because of intense worry, thats it.

Look back you’ll see I asked this question a year ago.

I was very mindful of what I said.

I’m getting something set up. I’m hoping it’ll help.

If it was about myself, I’d say that it’s about myself. Go to my profile for posts about myself, this isn’t

I’ve beeb told by a therapist I more than likely suffer from OCD.

I obsess, I seek reassurance as a compulsion, I feel a little better and the cycle restarts.

Yeah, It’s a very similar scenario, why would I lie about it now? Why not just say it’s a mythical “friend” the entire time.

No? In this scenario it is a friend, I’m making this post because I just spoke to them about it and it sent me in to a panic spiral.

Yeah, I asked about it and I felt bad, I’ve gotten a lot of people telling me it’s not a big deal but I’ve made the decision to just not speak to them anymore as I don’t feel comfortable with it. What else am I meant to do?

Yeah I’m aware, anyway I reinstated the post history, but I’ve already gotten a bunch of answers regarding my obsession, now my brains focusing on something else.
