I hate being alone. I'm terrified of being alone. When I'm with friends I'm calm and collected, act casual and normal. When I'm alone I become so scared that my body goes stiff and I find it hard to move. My body doesn't react as well as usual, and doesn't do what it should - I have to remember to blink and such, as my body won't do it itself like usual. Is it normal?
Definitely sounds like something you would benefit from receiving therapy for. It's not healthy to always need other people to function, because if you ever find yourself on your own for a long time for whatever reason, you won't cope. It could lead to you befriending or getting into relationships with the wrong people just to avoid that situation.
You might have a phobia!I would work on spending some quality time alone occasionally. People will get sick of you if you are too clingy.You are not a baby anymore! People could take advantage of your disposition!! You might want to seek help if you find it completely unbearable to be alone. You might be scared to face yourself.Nothing wrong with being a socialite , but everyone needs to learn to live alone before they can live in harmony with others.
Ah, but this is important, my friend. Think, think hard. When you are alone, you feel scared. But analyse this carefully. What exactly are you afraid of? Then perhaps you can get some help and work through it slowly.
Do you have anyone in your family who also suffers from the same thing? Just curious.
Well, you clearly associate being alone with something really horrible. Think now; what is it that makes you feel this way. It's clearly a psychological thing. Did your parents use to tell you as a kid that terrible things happen when you're alone? Being alone is not that bad. But who am I to say? All the best though and relax, you'll deal with it eventually.
