Breakup
I just broke up with my boyfriend of almost a year and a half next month, I don’t know how to feel or what to do anymore, I can’t sleep right, or I sleep too much, I always feel so lonely and guilty, but I don’t want to go back to him, he has so many mental issues and refused to get help for the longest time, he finally got therapy over the phone but hasn’t even started. He has psychotic breaks, episodes, I understand all of his problems, but he always seems to want everyone’s sympathy and won’t change. He says he is trying so very hard to change so we can be back together, but there’s just so many emotions, he was my first actual love, I did my first everything with him, I’m only 17 and couldn’t handle all of his problems and mine, I had to quit my job to focus on us, and it made me so sad and anxiety ridden, there’s just so many things I need to say and think but what? What is it that I need to say or think? I don’t know I need some help and communication from someone, anyone. I feel like I’m slowly losing all of my friendships that aren’t my best friends, I feel like such a *** person, I just want some help, please.

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Breaking up with someone can be incredibly difficult, especially when you've invested so much time and emotion into the relationship. It's normal to feel a range of emotions, including sadness, loneliness, and guilt. It's important to remember that you are not alone, and there are people who care about you, including your closest friends. If you're feeling overwhelmed, consider talking to a therapist or counselor to help you process your emotions and find ways to cope. It's also important to take care of yourself and prioritize your own well-being by doing things that bring you joy and satisfaction. Take one day at a time and slowly things will get better with time. Remember that this is an opportunity to learn and grow, and that it's okay to prioritize yourself and your own needs. You are not a bad person and you deserve love and happiness.
