I'm becoming increasingly fearful of losing friends. I'm even afraid to fight with them, and even a little argument causes me to worry about how they felt. Often I go back, call them back even when they were wrong. Inversely, its affecting my ego and self-esteem badly, and making me feel like a wimp. WTH is happening to me? I can't go on like this anymore. I BADLY need to shake it off but can't seem to. Help!

Its all returned to normal now though, but that aint the real problem. Btw I've a history of sorts where I'd once been abandoned out of the blue by two best friends. That was eons ago, and I was in shock and had even developed anxiety for a while, though got over it in time. But the events of last month somehow caused that long-gone anxiety to resurface. I'm just afraid of confrontation. I'm feeling so embarrassed. I want to kick it off, but it seems to have taken a strong hold. Its so fucking baseless.

Well, I think it's natural to not want to be left out but, not to the point where you are letting people walk all over you. It sounds like you are even having some anxiety over it.
Has anything serious happened in your life lately? You say your not normally like this. So what has changed about you or in your life? Can you think of anything and I mean anything. Like boyfriend, Class schedule, Job, health!!
