I’m not sure what to do about my cat and it makes me sad

I wasn’t too sure where to post this but well long story short a year ago I adopted my 3 yr old cat Nala, after wanting to adopt a cat for a while.. Im usually home a lot so I knew I would be able to take care of a pet and have someone there for me as a emotional support pet since I suffer from depression and anxiety.

It took her months to get used to my husband and I, she would hide under the bed for weeks but after a while slowly but surely she warmed up to us, she’s still very shy and gets scared easily, to this day she won’t let my son see her and whenever he’s visiting she hides under the bed, she’s not a social cat at all.

Now fast forward to now as she’s getting older, she is a lot more distant now than she ever was, I don’t feel like I have a bond with her and it makes me sad, the only time she comes after me is if she wants food or treats, she won’t cuddle with me or even hangout with me, she’s either hiding somewhere or on her cat tree.

Sucks because I really wanted a companion and someone to love but she’s more distant than she ever was, it feels at times like I don’t even have a cat, I even thought about maybe rehoming her because I dont know what to do anymore.
