Silverchair had a song that had one lyric that always stuck out to me:

I don't want to be lonely; I just wanna be alone.

I feel this. For me, this feels included in the "safe" part of the OP, because I have found that one of the best salves for this feeling is someone who I can be with as we each do our own thing. It feels less stressful because there isn't as much of the whiplash between the binary of wanting my own space but then feeling lonely

That kinda sounds like bpd, ngl.

that sounds like me sometimes. Also somewhat the above comment sometimes too. my friend told me that I might (i think he was more certain) that I have cptsd, and I know I have depression.

I did an on the job learning at the same restaurant they worked at. It sounds a bit worrying but I was +20 at the time lol, we still joke about it a bit. I highly recommend meeting people IRL, schools jobs hobbies volunteering etc, rather than the BS "dating" apps. I have only found predators on those, harder to spot when it's written and so on.

No, seriously! I think for many they indeed are

I pronounce it like odd-DHD. I'm odd
