Breaking inside

My girlfriend just left me recently because I was too depressing. I tried not to be depressing but everyone always leaves me alone. The people I care about leave me to wallow in my own sadness. She said i weighed her down and I still want to be with her. She wants to be friends and says it hurt her to leave but I just don't know what to do anymore. She said I need help. Please help

I am struggling with loving myself. I always have had other around for attention and praise but alone I begin to turn into a downward spiral of negative thoughts that take over. My boyfriend is also talking about leaving because he can't take the break downs every month. I'm aware of them, i know when its going to happen, but I can't stop it from happening. I don't want to lose my relationship over my inability to control my emotions. I too will be going to see a concealer because I know I need help. I need to learn to have self-esteem and confidence. Along with how to control my social anxiety.

I'll help as much as I can.

Oliver seems to have the best advice.... SEEK OUT MEDICAL HELP.

Depression can be a major issue in a relationship. But working with a DR or Therapist may help you. They can prescribe AD's or give you techniques to assist.

My wife says I go through this twice a year. I dont have answers myself, but I do know that my Doc's have my back. They want people to be happy.

The other side of things, is this: Have you actually looked at what is making you unhappy? Change it. I personally thought my Wife was the cause of my unhappiness. She asked me to leave 2 months ago. What I have realized is that I am the cause of my unhappiness. I am working to change, to give myself the forgiveness I need and the care I deserve.
