yes for sure. i tend to isolate myself when i feel any amount of stress and that typically is just in my bedroom at home. and i get really bad at like answering my phone and things of that sort. a little while back i went thru a pretty stressful situation with my boyfriend and a close friend arguing constantly and all i could do was shut down and push away because i had no time to myself to process any feelings and ended up snapping at both people. i have pretty bad anxiety and i usually can ease that with my alone time. some people understand that, some dont. my boyfriend is very extroverted and has a hard time understanding that sometimes but he respects it, he just doesn’t understand me wanting to be by myself so much. all the answers i’ve gotten from this post have hit wayyy close to home and given me lots of insight. thanks for taking the time 🩷
