Having good friends but becoming anxious

[Danwatts]

Hi their

I have quite a few good friends and I develop good relations with work people. I become really anxious or feel like I obsessed over people when I get close to them. I find it extremely frustrating because I want to have some close friends without feeling like I obsesse to thinking about them all the time. I also feel anxious due to oh so I need to talk to them all the time.

My advice would be to find a way to manage the associated anxiety. That's not easy as we both care and worry a lot.

It can be hard to unpick why but lower self-esteem and rejection sensitivity can be part of it. Affirmations might be one idea to try to limit the fear/worry
