Do you have many friends in the real life?

I do not have friends, I do have some people with whom I may have a chat, but these people are not any close friends. With my psych nurse I talk about all kinds of matters, which is good. I think I am used to being alone and I do not really feel any loneliness.

i don’t have any friends in real life…!!!

I have one friend, my girlfriend (who also has schizophrenia). Otherwise I have no friends.

I have no friends. But there are a couple of old timers I stop and talk to in the village. They are cool.

I have friends. Here’s the thing though: my friends don’t know I am mentally ill. I just play normal and make friends and then basically lie for years. I feel horrible about it, but it’s become second nature to me. I’m just trying to protect myself from discrimination.

My friends are usually people I met at school or the gym. I usually only have one or two really close friends that I confide in. The rest are just people I party with and see on a daily basis.
I am also friends with my cousins, but I’m not counting them here since they have to love me!!! Just kidding!

Big fat zero. I have no idea how to make friends. A part of me wants friends and another part is terrified of people getting too close to me. I have something of a split/confused personality when it comes to the issue of friends.
I think one of the things that makes me wary is the social adjustments required in order to have a friend.

I have many friends. I don’t have time for all of them, but it’s the close ones that matter.

Perhaps now I have a friend. My computer, it’s alive.

I just check the CPU core temperature and it is 98.6 F.

Just don’t fall in love with your computer :stuck_out_tongue: (it remembers me that movie that was released in 2013, Her).

My best friend was my beloved dog.

It kills me everyday that I had to give him away.

On the Animal Shelter site their is now a photo of him with his name and description.

I tear up every time I see his photo on there.

I pray for him everyday.

I only have my bf. By association I have his friends who we see maybe 2-3 times a year.

No one really close or hang out with.

Besides me, no one

When the playstation 5 comes out that will be my friend I might as well start saving 4 the entertainment system since I don’t have a job.
