I cut off ALL my friends after high school?

[Ceejay]

When I'm stressed, I do the same thing but it didn't happen when I graduated, it happend in the 11th Grade. Things were just becoming too much for me and I couldn't cope and I felt sort of far away from everyone so I kind of began to shut people out and didn't bother hanging out with people or really talking. I guess I just hit the wall. I wasn't depressed but I'd pretend to be happy but all I wanted to do was scream just because I was that stressed out. I just wanted to get the year done with and I cut people out. I'm actually an extrovert but in that moment I became an introvert and used to come straight home after school, sleep, eat, do homework and sleep again. Eventually, I became less stressed and I was able to socialize again and my friends welcomed me back, I guess and I explained to them what happened to me and how I was struggling to cope with it all and I just didn't know what to do with myself and I couldn't balance school and friends anymore.

I think you should contact those old friends. A lot of the time, we imagine how people would react but they do the exact opposite. Just call them up and you can hang out or something.
