I ghosted my friend group of ten tears in 2023 because of a miscarriage and other shit happening. It was a really really bad period in my life and although now it's better and I'm slowly getting myself back together I sometimes see them DM me, and I just couldn't respond to them. I sometimes think about reaching out, but it feels like I'm a stranger now to them and it would just be weird if I came out of the blue to talk to them again.
