bit of a vent.

i haven't felt this low in ages so it terrifies me that i feel like this again. Food, sleep, motivation, they're so hard again. 

 

i'm leaving the place i moved too soon which is for the best in the long run but i have to leave the person i'm falling for and thats ripping me apart.. i feel so selfish and silly for hoping they'll miss me like i'll miss them and that it'll maybe sting abit for them when i leave.

Hi @xoxg_00

 

Thank you so much for your vulnerability and for sharing your story. I’m sorry to hear that even seemingly simple tasks have become so challenging. It must feel overwhelming to reach this point in your mental health, where certain things are hard to do. I hope you’ve been doing ok over the past few weeks. Have you been able to confide in your close friends to help you through this difficult time?

 

It must be incredibly painful to come to a mutual decision to end a relationship with someone you still care for, especially while living under the same roof. It’s completely understandable to hope that someone you’ve invested so much time, energy, and affection into would feel the same way about the separation. Parting ways with someone you are falling for, particularly due to lifestyle differences like not wanting to do long distance, sounds incredibly painful. By making this choice, you’ve ultimately prioritised your own needs. I hope you're being kind to yourself as you begin to heal 💜.

 

Just checking in to see how you have been 🤗

Hello @xoxg_00

 

That sounds tough, I'm sorry that you are feeling this way. Hopefully things will get better soon. Maybe try something new or revisit old hobbies that you enjoyed. You might also try to reach out to friends and family?

Good luck.

Hey @xoxg_00

 

I am so proud of you for being brave and being so open and vulnerable with us all here on ReachOut.

 

It really does sound quite scary feeling very low, and also struggling with eating, sleeping and your motivation levels. I can resonate with getting to these low points but for much different circumstances. Eating food, getting enough sleep, staying hydrated etc, can be hard to manage when our mental health isn't good; but it's important that we still try to do all these things. Have you spoken to family, friends or even a counsellor about what has been happening? 

 

I see that you are not feeling good at all about having to move and that leaving behind the person you're falling for is hurting you. Is there any chance that you could stay in contact with this person? Have you told this person about you having to move and also your feelings towards them?

 

I hope to hear from you soon.

yeah he knows im leaving :,) i think it's really hurting both of us honestly and neither of us want long distance so we'll have to go back to just friends after i leave which hurts even more. I think we're both trying to enjoy my last few weeks here and spend as much time together as we can.

Hey @xoxg_00

Welcome to the Online Community!

Thank you for sharing how you are feeling right now. It sounds like you are going through a tough time at the moment and I am glad you have found us and have been able to reach out for some support. 

 

I know you mentioned that you haven't felt this low in a long time and that food, sleep and motivation have been so hard for you and I was wondering if you felt comfortable sharing more about this with us?

 

When you have felt low in the past, has anything helped you with these feelings or have you been able to talk to anyone in your life about this such as a friend, family member, GP or mental health professional? 

 

I know you mentioned that you are moving soon and whilst it will be a good thing, it will also mean that you will be leaving someone you have feelings for. I was wondering if you have spoken to them about leaving and about how you are feeling? 

 

I also wanted to let you know that we have sent you an email to check in, could you please keep an eye out for that? 

 

Take care and I hope to hear back from you soon. 

Welcome back!
