My fiance just broke up with me. Wtf. I don& #39;t have any friends. I& #39;m really scared and i& #39;ve never felt so alone.
Thanks everyone..... I dont really know what to do now. Im gonna go for a walk. What else is good to do?
I& #39;m gonna go to sleep early. Severely sleep deprived this past week. Still alone. Im not good at asking for and receiving help... https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😞" title="Enttäuschtes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Enttäuschtes Gesicht"> I always feel like a burden and stop myself
I woke up about an hour ago. I thought about going to help at E precinct but then I remembered I have an appt. at noon. I will make it out this evening though. (Not saying this for any particular reason, I just kind of want to stay connected bc I don& #39;t really have any friends)
Also just wanted to clarify why I don& #39;t have any friends- I& #39;m not unfriendable I promise, I& #39;m just social anxiety and also I realized all my current superficial "friends" are incredibly privileged and I don& #39;t truly connect w them and I don& #39;t want to talk to them (met thru fiance)
Therapy session was good (she& #39;s actually my ADHD specialist lol). Now I& #39;ll probably do some planning and getting ready for my day (likely People& #39;s Assembly and fucking the police). Top 3 Takeaways from therapy below.
(1) I have been making many really responsible choices about how to grieve and process this loss. Sometimes I& #39;ll need to distract myself; other times I& #39;ll need to face my feelings head on. I& #39;m good at recognizing what I need, and I should be proud of myself.
(2) I don& #39;t have to worry about burdening people who reach out to support me. If I& #39;m worried abt that, I can remind that they can stop the conversation any time they want and that I don& #39;t expect them to be my therapist, or anything more than an ear to listen when willing/able.
(3) I& #39;m going to be ok. I& #39;m actually a valuable and worthwhile person without a partner. I try to be kind and compassionate and make good decisions. There are people who would want to be MY friend, who would really like me for the person that I am. I don& #39;t have to change.
I also just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been incredibly kind & supportive on this thread <3 it really helps me feel less alone, and I truly appreciate each of you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💖" title="Funkelndes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Funkelndes Herz"> Y& #39;all remind me that the world is good & wants me around.
