When it comes to friendship, there's some kind of unspoken fear that we have to have it all together or our friends won't want to be our friends anymore. Do you find yourself worrying that if your friends could see your *insert weakness, fault, or fear here* they'd go running? What if friendship was less about two perfect people finding each other and more about finding the people who compliment and fit in with your own humanity?

If friends aren't the people we play with at recess or live down the hall from in the college dorm, what are they? Why do we need them if not to have a friend for hide and seek or someone to share the highs and lows of growing up with? Why do we even need friends at all?

You know that healthy friendships are an essential part of your mental health and well-being, but it feels like making friends as an adult should be easier. Why does it seem like everyone else has it figured out and you're just sitting there hoping for someone to adopt you and be best friends forever and never have to make a new friend again?

Some of us grew up thinking that our faith was a permanent, immovable object and that any whiff of change or dissonance was a personal failure. But what happens when you realize that the ways you've always understood and practiced your beliefs are unhealthy and need to shift?

It's easy to feel like who we are is made up of all the things we can offer people - we are worth the sum of our productivity and helpfulness. But what happens when we have nothing to offer? Do my friends want me just for who I am or for the value I add to their lives? What kind of a friend am I if I have nothing to give? It's terrifying to be vulnerable enough to admit that all I can give my friends is myself, but sometimes that's all I've got. How can we navigate friendships when we are all overwhelmed, burned out, and exhausted?
