Do I even want friends?

Question

Sometimes I honestly don’t even care to hang out with my friends like when I do I’m super depressed or stressed out. I honestly just want to hang out with my boyfriend he’s the only person that I can be around with and not feel like that. We have mutual friends so he just hangs out with them because I honestly don’t want too. Maybe I need new friends or maybe I’m just tired of dealing with people.

Answer

It's the depression talking. It does it's best to keep you isolated from people. 
When I'm depressed I'm the same way. I don't feel like hanging out or talking to anyone. So when my depression was at its worst I would go a month or more without even replying to my friends texts, let alone hanging out. My psychiatrist always told me to do it even when I didn't feel like it - but it would make me feel worse. It didn't become something I wanted to do until I got treatment for my depression (medication and therapy). Now the idea of not wanting any friends/wanting to be alone, freaks me out. So it was definitely all due to the depression.
