Building Rewarding Friendships
Evaluating friendships allows us to determine if they are supportive and complementary, or whether they have grown distant and draining. It’s important to consider many different factors when determining if a friendship is healthy, beneficial, and reciprocal.


Evaluating Your Social Circle and Building Rewarding Friendships

Having rewarding friendships is important for our emotional health and well-being. Since friends can influence our happiness, stress levels, and perspectives, we may need to evaluate these connections from time to time. This can help us identify which relationships are supportive, positive, and help us grow, and which may be one-sided, draining, or unhealthy.

Good friendships fuel us and they help us feel connected and supported. Though, they don’t always stay the same and naturally change over time as we change. Let’s take time to reflect on what we need from our friendships right now, figure out if we’re getting it, and what to do when we find them challenging. Join our small group conversation, led by a Spring Health provider, and share your experience with both positive and negative friendship moments.
