Feeling Helpless and Alone, Trying to Get Better by Myself
Relationship Stress / by thryth

...See more Last year, I had a crisis of faith, was utterly overwhelmed by school work and ended up distancing myself from my family and some good friends. I found a supportive friend around that time but we had a fall out and haven't talked since. I relied a lot on my significant other at the time too, but we also ended up breaking up. I'm trying to rekindle things with my family and several friends. They don't know much and talking about my issues feels difficult. I feel so helpless and alone. Looking back, I've come to realise that my ex and I really weren't right for each other and I was very emotionally exhausting to them (as well as to my friend who was trying her best to support me). I know we need the distance to heal but it also feels like I'm giving up my only safe space. They were my only comfort when things were really bad. I realised that I'm not very independent and I'm having a lot of difficulty trying to get better by myself now. I often find myself making one step forward and two steps back and then having to start back from square one. I would appreciate any kind of advice. Thank you for reading and giving me your time.
