You want friends. You NEED friends. But you keep thinking about all the previous friendships that didn’t work out. Or, perhaps a bad relationship has shaken your confidence in yourself and in forming new relationships. Maybe you grew up in a toxic or unhealthy family and never really learned how to form healthy relationships. You might even be playing the same old unhealthy scenarios in your mind over and over and over again. Sounds like you might have baggage. And that baggage could be holding you back from establishing and maintaining healthy friendships.
If you want to hear more about how baggage might be ruining your friendships before they even get started, check out this full episode.
If you feel like baggage really, truly is the problem, and you need help dealing with it, please contact a qualified therapist or counselor in your area.
