Adviced needed: Distancing myself
| The cycle just ends up repeating itself. I do my best to be a good friend. But when that breaking point hits, I just can't stand being around anyone. I get roped commonly into the problems of everyone around me, but I never have a chance to actually tackle my own. But then when I try staying out of the drama between my friends, I get guilted into joining in.
| Same op except I have no friends...
| >>623546 I'm sorry to hear that. It wasn't until I started college that I finally ended up making myself. I hope your luck changes and that you make good friends. I also hope that you don't end up in the state I'm in at the moment.
| I hang around people that hate each others guts all the time and it's ok
| Tell them you don't want to be part of the drama and can be an impartial observer.
Alternatively, make new friends.

| Growing up, I was a loner. Because of so, I adapted to be emotionally independent, exception of close family.
In recent years I was lucky to gain friends, both online and irl. But I noticed a common problem. Whenever I get roped up into drama between friends, or another problem breaks out within my family - I become emotionally distant. I shut down, I end up basically ghosting people and just being by myself. But then I feel guilty about getting back in contact.
