Early teens I was very social and outgoing. Last couple years, I just want to be alone all the time so it got to the point that my friends never call me anymore and I dont call them, I always made excuses to avoid situations. I dont really hang out with anyone anymore. The only close family or friends is my sister as all my cousins and family live in a different city.
Growing up I had a pretty rocky relationship with my parents and felt very alone growing up. I know my dad gave up on us (3 kids) and just was never really supportive...although he stayed living with us. I know that gets me mad because what boy doesnt want a father to be there. I have a hard time talking to my own mom and dad. Im not really antisocial because the people I work with I can talk with and hold conversations with and tend to make people laugh easily. I know Ive been depressed and probably still am. I tend to keep everything to myself and not share how I feel. Lately I just been wanting to move away somewhere by myself.
Giving all that...I just want to be alone now. I always just stay in my room and watch movie or listen to music or play a game. Seems like everyone nowadays has a lack of respect for humans and lack of common courtesy and that is a big pet peeve for me.
Is this normal to not want to be around family or friends?
