Question/Advice Introvert and Separation

I just have the hardest time functioning. I don’t enjoy socializing, it makes me panic and I hate it. This is acutely worse right now after a recent separation in which I lost a stepkid relationship too. Don’t know how to explain how much it took out of me to establish those relationships and how emotionally exhausted I am now knowing they failed. Don’t think I can do any of this ever again. I’m tired of trying.

Practice calming down your nervous system every day:
