wondering whether I should quit while I'm ahead and withdraw from my relationships with people gradually.

@SW-User why so drastic a move?

SW-User

@SW-User I think it's just a self-protection thing my brain does when I get close to people.

@SW-User Sounds like textbook depression. I'd advise against it.

SW-User

@uncalled4 I thought textbook depression is a chemical imbalance.

@SW-User Knowing the cause is above my pay scale. :)

SW-User

@uncalled4 but textbook depression is a chemical balance.
That I saw displayed just sounded like extreme disappointment /sadness.
But again.. Not my area.

@SW-User Nor mine. The pulling away/isolation is concerning.

SW-User

@uncalled4 I say what I do, because I do it too.
It's a defense mechanism of sorts. For me.
