I want my confidence back
Self-Esteem / by Cassm8988
Last post
 June 17th
...See more I've been struggling with my lack of self confidence lately. I recently got out of an emotional abusive and manipulative friendship and I knew it took a toll on my self worth. I'm upset because another friend has been grating my nerves with talking about things that feel like she's shoving accomplishments in my face on top of that it's been feeling like everyone wants her around more and couldn't care less if I just vanished. It makes me feel stupid and lesser than her and it genuinely just ticks me off to the point I don't want to be around her because I'm jealous. I'm so incredibly jealous and I hate myself for it. I feel like a bad friend, a failure and just unlikeable.

Friend breakup

...See more Hi I'm new here and just feeling really lost. I'm going through ending a friendship with someone after 5 years and 2 prior chances for them to change their narcissistic behavior. I cut them off completely, no contact, but I'm still anxious about letting go. I feel like I'm a bad person, that I'm too emotional and should just go back. One example of things is we both streamers and I basically quit due to them starting fights while I was live and i had to pretend I was ok, followed by the degrading comments I would get after my streams. I want to get back into it and I'm scared to because of them, even though they can't do anything to me. I hate that I still care, it takes everything in me to not go look at their socials. I know it's only been a few weeks but I'm scared of going back, I don't want to put myself through a "friendship" that makes me feel worthless and cry everyday again.
