Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
My bf broke up with me a little less than 2 months ago, but we still see each other and love each other. He tries to keep distance with me but that just makes my anxiety worse… I’m at a point were I need him, boyfriend or not and he might be trying to do the right thing, but it’s not about us anymore. Every day I feel like I start from scratch, I have panic attack, I can’t eat, can barely sleep… He calms me down and gives me the strength I need, but the way he is distant wth me erases all the rest.
Everybody says that I should let him go, but right now I can’t win that battle alone.
It's important to either punch them in the head and drag their unconscious body back to shore, or let them drown and stay alive yourself. The problem is you often don't know they're going to pull you under till they start doing it.
You cannot be completely carried by another human who also has to carry himself. You have to learn to carry yourself. Cry. Have those tears. Have those panic attacks. Stop eating for a fortnight.
None of this will kill you. It's all a perfectly normal part of the human condition.
And once it is behind you, you never have to worry about it being ahead of you ever again.
So get the job done. Stand on your own feet, not on his, go through your share of life pain without offloading it onto someone else, and become strong as a consequence of having grown through the pain.
I'm going through therapy and I hope I can get back on my feet asap.
I'm really fighting through this whole, but this year as just been really difficult, I'm far from home, my parents are going through a divorce and I have to deal with depression. He has been the constant in whole this and I just hope I can keep him in my life because after this year and all we both have been through I know we do good together...
