I’ve decided to distance myself from my friends after repeated disrespect, unnecessary criticism, and constant laughter at my expense — it’s hurting my self-esteem and worsening my social anxiety. Did I make the right call?

Support during the end of a friendship - a good friend walks out of your life, they made you upset, etc. Feel free to talk about how your friendships ended, or leave a nice thought for others. It gets better with time. If we miss anything that's breaking the rules feel free to message the mods or use the "Report" button in the comments.
