Does any of this resonate?

You avoid spending time with yourself. You do this by taking care of everyone else around you. That way, there is never any time left for you, and you never have to be alone with yourself.

Despite seemingly being in the company of others, this type of behavior is actually the foundation of loneliness. When you abandon your relationship with yourself in favor of pleasing or showing up for others, you are seeking connection and approval from the outside in, making you feel even more lonely.

Just like forming any relationship, building one with yourself takes time and consideration. A great place to start is understanding your needs and what lights you up.
