have I lost my mind?

Between a part time job where i have 5:45 am mornings, college right after 5 days a week and little time for myself I have been losing sleep. I havent been able to form complete sentences, thoughts or even be social. I'm struggling with my severe deppression along with an ex who has aspergers and adhd who cant accept no for an answer. Even on the days where i do get sleep I still feel emotionally and mentally exhausted. 


I have been trying to bridge a friendship with my ex but he keeps saying how he sees a future with me and wants me. I have repeatedly told him it feels like he's trying to guilt me and push for more than friendship. Along with gaslighting me and constantly sending me tons of texts he has trouble accepting that I dont love him anymore and keeps hounding me for an answer as to why.


I am at my wits end, I'm losing all of my patience with everyone around me and I just want to disapear so badly. Im not gonna kill myself but I want to get away from everyone for a while. I don't know what to do or where to go.

I have Asperger's too. Sounds pretty accurate: being desperate when trying to find love, does not accept no for an answer, is stuck on one topic, such as love, for extremely long periods of time. Possibly one of the main reasons why I am still single, have zero friends, and am widely disliked on the internet. I too feel like there is no one for me.

It will probably come to a DO NOT CONTACT court order ... eventually.

This sounds like harassment to me. I would give him one final warning letting him know that you will get a restraining order if he doesn't leave you alone.

You can't rationalize with someone who has not rationale, a person with Asperger's and ADHD is not going to be able to keep a "friendship" with you when they don't even understand why your not together. The only thing to do there is a clean cut and stop the relationship. Block numbers off your phone and stop contact. There is no other option.

As for work and college, its hard but it won't kill you, many of us did it. You have to get yourself organized and get on a set schedule with sleep put in. Getting the ex-BF and that stress out of the equation will help you quite a bit.

Take care,
