Love, depression, self harm

I would like to share my problems in case someone has some advice on what to do.

So I’ve been suffering from depression, self harm and eating disorder for 10+ years now. Some days are better than others but currently it seems like there is no way out.

Everything i do is unsuccessful, i am fighting a lot with my relatives, i keep my emotions inside and pretending like everything is fine.

I also have this “friend” that i fell in love with and he fell in love with me as well, but he had a girlfriend and the other friend of mine told me that apparently they broke up. I don’t want to ask him about it right now but for the past two months he has been very distant, he didn’t talk to me or anything. And two weeks ago we met sorted some other things out and he became distant again, although he texts me occasionally after we met.

Im scared to loose him completely, that he will cut the contact altogether and left. I miss him like crazy and I might sound stupid or crazy but i truly wish for us to be together.

In the meantime when we weren’t in contact for two months i had a slip up and harmed myself which I slightly regret now and I’m too scared to tell him especially now when i know he is going trough stuff.

There are days when i wish I wasn’t here, i feel like i got no support and if i do tell anybody they will put me back to psychiatric hospital.

If anyone has any advice i will be very thankful for it.

Hey there, 

That sounds like a lot, what you're going through. 

I can understand the desire to get with that person or the confusion you might be going through in regard to the person who stood you up. You are not stupid in any way and your mental struggles truly matter. You have taken the first step by coming on here and I'm sure you would find the best possible support on 7 cups.

We are not permitted to give any sort of advice on here but if you do want to talk about anything you're going through that's laying heavy on your mind these days, feel free to reach out to me or any other listener to your liking. 

Lots Of Love ♡
