I've cut off all ties with my friends and most of my family, tbh I feel at peace cause I don't have to worry abt hurting anyone anymore but i also know that it's temporary and sooner or later im gonna feel lonely. I can't tell if it was the right move, i just did it by saying it's self care when in reality it could be self sabotage.

One of my friends reached out to ask how i was doing, we've only talked a couple of times so im not that close to her but she's really nice. Almost too nice? I know it sounds stupid but it freaks me out that some people actually want to talk to me and i get overwhelmed and i end up ghosting everyone. I kinda feel like responding to her text but at the same time i know i might ghost her again :( . Should i just go w my gut and take time off from everyone? Or should i try to reach out? Any advice?
