Relationship issues, I am lost!
Relationship Stress / by determinedZebra6791

...See more Hey everyone, hope that your day was pleasant! I have been dating a woman for eight months now and we’re no strangers to each other. We first met and started a relationship three years ago, but we were both very traumatized young adults, still dealing with a lot of things and it didn’t end well. About nine months ago she reached out and we planned to stay friends. We fell for each other again. We had a wonderful time the first two months but childhood traumas quickly caught up. We know each other too well for the « honeymoon phase » to last. We’re honestly compatible. We love each other, we share the same values, the same goals in life, the same core opinions. But my abandonment issues, trust issues PTSD, depression etc make it hard to deal with conflict in the relationship. And she also has her deal of issues. Ever since we had our first huge conflict things went downward. Now we’re on the recovery path but I am anxious, and I know she is too. I don’t want to lose her, neither does she. I figured that I have to address my abandonment issues and anxiety problems. And I have to form new friendships, I’ve lost friends over the months and I’ve been isolating myself more and more. It’s hard to form friendships for me. Anyway, i am lost and here I find myself alone again. Anyone living a similar situation? Do you have any tips to deal with this kind of relationship issues?

...See more Hi everyone! About two years ago I realized that I was experiencing anxiety (yes haha it took me forever to realize it, can you believe that?). With therapy and lots of reflection I found out that I suffer from multiple forms of anxiety including: * Generalized anxiety * Anxiety of separation * Social anxiety I also have been diagnosed with complex PTSD and depression, as well as being HPE (high potential emotional). Anyone else struggling with multiple conditions at once? Any tips on how to manage it day to day?
