Nasty breakup

Yesterday was the day my year long relationship ended and I live with my (ex?) partner

It's difficult for me because I still love him so much, but I had a full blown episode [I have bipolar disorder] and that most likely ruined any chance of rekindling. That alone gives me so much stress and anxiety. I've gotten so used to having him around, it's uncomfortable to even sleep alone in bed, I don't know what to do

Im supposed to be talking to a therapist but due to previous conflicts, I was the sole income for a few months and had to give therapy up to cover bills, rent and groceries

@bipolardollii

I'm sorry you are going through this.

I think it's important focus on you for now and why you had this melt down, out some good self care routines in place. Give yourself time and space to heal and feel better, before thinking of rekindling anything. I hope you get through this 💜💕

@bipolardollii

It's a complicated story, but you understand perfectly well that things are not so good and you probably won't be together. I think that attachment to him (anyone) is so negative, so you will have to readjust, and of course, it will take time. Maybe you can make this transition less abrupt while he is with you, but you have to be strong and remember - everything always ends. It may be easier for you to survive some things, remembering this, but still, be yourself and let you get out of this situation!
