Why do I keep having these negative insecure thoughts that my friends don’t really like me or care about me, even when I know it’s not true at all.My brain goes into overdrive, analyzing every little thing like their facial expressions and the words they say, and makes senseless and negative conclusions about it although I know it isn’t true. I’ve tried to push these thoughts away, but they just won’t quit, and it’s making my life pretty miserable. Any tips on how to deal with these nagging insecurities and feel better about my friendships?

You start by recognizing where they came from and then learn what triggers them.
Learn to differentiate the insecurities between rational and irrational fears.
Practice communicating how you feel and understand why you are feeling the way you are.
Allow yourself to understand and have empathy for yourself- you are allowed to feel.
