I Just Can't Let Go and Stop Living In The Past
Relationship Stress / by xxambygirlxx

...See more I'm 17 years old and I've been feeling really down recently and this isn't normal for me as I've always been quite a positive person who can avoid getting dragged down by things too deeply, but over the last 10 months I've really not felt myself and trying to deal with it on my own isn't really working. I've recently moved schools for sixth form and have lost a lot of friends during the transition period who I had been very close with for the past 5 years. I've not been coping well with that and always avoid letting go and instead try to clutch onto past memories in hope of that providing me with some comfort, etc. But I don't think it's healthy for me to bury things and bottle them up. I also broke up with my boyfriend 8 months ago who I had a very deep connection with and am constantly wondering whether ending it was a mistake or not. I have been referred to as "poisonous" in the past for always seeming to hurt people I become close to. But it's just cause I'm so indecisive and scared that I push them away and I'm scared I'll never find someone I'm 100% certain about :( I've been trying to read online about things that could be wrong with me and descriptions about having a 'fearful avoidant attachment style' seem to be accurate. Has anyone come across that before? It seems to make sense and I think it could be the reason why many of my close relationships have deteriorated, so it's something I'd like to potentially discuss and fix.
