I can't text back

This might sound weird but I can't seem to text anyone back at a reasonable time. I take 3-10 business days for close friends

I literally feel unable to do it. I don't know how to explain but texting makes me so anxious. I don't want to do this. But when I receive a text I get anxious and try to avoid even thinking about it. Even texts from close friends.

The problem is I wasn't always like this. It started around last year I got sad... for a very long time. Months. And I started not being too available but then at some point I would get really happy and text people back like normal for maybe three days then ghost everyone again. And it would continue like this for some time. Few days of being happy and then other days of absolute misery.

But now I never get that random happiness... so I never text them now. It's not that I'm sad but I'm definitely not happy or motivated. This is a problem because I don't get to see them often due to college. I force myself to text when I get too anxious that they are gonna leave or something.

I'm pretty sure I look like an asshole to them and they might stop being my friend but I love them very much. So if u have any idea about what's going on and how to stop being so anxious over nothing that'd be helpful thanks.

Sorry for spelling or grammar mistakes. It's late night and I'm tired.

    I'm not an expert, but it sounds to me like you are suffering from some serious depression, and anxiety. I sometimes feel the same way; probably more often than I'd like to admit.
