    Hey there @Past User

    Welcome to the community!

    I've just moved your post to the Health and Well-being section of the boards, as it will be a better place for receiving support etc, hope that's okay!

    It's positive that you have reached out for support here, I hope that you will be able to talk to people who are going through similar things.  :)

    Its sounds like things have been pretty tough recently for you, so sending big hugs! Do you want to talk more about why you feel scared all the time and struggle to be on your own?  <3

    Your friends not understanding, and no longer wanting to be friends with you would understandably be difficult to deal with.  <3

    Hi Morgan!
    I too have anxiety and depression so I may be able to empathise in some ways. But well done for a start for reaching out for support! X
