By pushing away, do you mean by something you do or are they overwhelmed by your struggle?

its both most of the time, but more so of stuff that i do. i feel like if i don’t let people help when i’m doing badly then they can’t hurt me.

I happen to do the same thing whenever everything gets overwhelming and I can’t handle people anymore. What I do is I take some time to myself away from said person and think about whatever I can. If someone did something to you to make you feel that way, you may not be completely healed from it which causes you to push people away. (That’s what I believe because I’ve done the same thing and been through it many times) if that helps any 😅 but I believe in you. You got this and if anything you can always message me on here if you ever want to talk to me about whatever is bothering you 🤗

Yuki, I try to do the same thing but my partner does not understand in the slightest. Were you ever in that situation or do you have any advice?

It happens but you have to be mindful that you deserve people who love you despite all your struggles, and anyone who helps you through those is a keeper.
