How To Get Help?

[rwashington89]

So basically, ever since the breakup i'v been feeling worse and worse. Me and the ex still contact each other and have already slept together twice since then(bad idea). Its actually tearing me apart emotionally and physically and I feel like there's a breaking point that I can feel coming. I'm in dire need to talk to someone about it because I can't take it anymore and I dont want to do anything stupid. How would I go about getting help? I have alrreeady came to the conclusion that im depressed.

hey - it sounds like you probably already know what you need to do to make this all a bit easier on yourself but its a difficult decision to make - you need to have time apart from your ex. Even the most amicable of breakups where both people agree that its over, there is a need for time and distance from each other to heal and repair from this. Seeing each other just to sleep with each other only makes you feel used after. If she truly wants you she would let you heal and get yourself better then reasses....but at the moment its just cutting open the stitches of any wound that is trying to heal.

 

Its so tough but if you stick with not seeing her - sleeping with her etc - you know that you are being the caring, adult, dignified party in this

 

Keep writing on here - its so tough but helps to know you are not alone

sorry - i dont mean 'if she truly wants you' .....more implying if she truly cares about you and not just to sleep with you!

I have tried so many times and failed. I don't feel strong enough for some reason. Like keeping my ex in my life is the only thing thats making me happy and depressed so it's an awkward situation lol.
