I'm going through a bad phase in life. I have lost motivation. I am in constant fear of people leaving me. I fear being alone,the thought of feeling lonely freaks me out. Sometimes all I want is to talk to people and sometimes I just want to be alone. I have become weak and vulnerable. There are nights when I won't stop crying. What should I do? I just want to be happy again.

Dear human, this must have been difficult to share but thank you for reaching out. It sounds like you’ve been going through a difficult time but you don’t have to suffer alone. Each and every individual, globally, is hit by the fear of loneliness at some point in their lives. But this is considered a trouble only when it’s intensity levels rise high to an extent where it interferes with one’s daily functioning. Fear of being alone could be because of traumatized events or situations in the past or feelings of low self-esteem or self-efficacy. This fear can also bring along feelings of anxiety and depression which could become even harder to handle. As there is no sufficient information in your description, we could get on a session to discuss further.

Dear Practo user,
I understand that it might be difficult for you to be under constant stress of being alone.
Early childhood experiences, parenting style and any thought in subconscious mind might be contributing to your fear of abandonment.
You could consult a clinical psychologist who might explore the issues surrounding
the fear and help to manage it in an effective way.
