I mostly had them as a child when I wasn't able to communicate or felt like I was being heard....which was a lot. I also would have them if someone was trying to force me to do something I obviously did not want to do such as jump into a swimming pool. But after I became an adult and FINNALLY had so... |

I always remember not really wanting friends. I was just gaslighted into thinking I needed them but whenever I was forced to interact with another child, I would just ignore them and do my own thing or go away.
