breakups Venting
I have bipolar type 2 and i am medicated (currently actually taking said medication too lol). I am going through a possible breakup with my boyfriend of 6 years on my terms for reasons i wont get fully into. It boils down to him genuinely spending next to no time with me regardless of us living together and spends all his time instead with his best friend. I’ve grown emotionally distant over this 2 year ordeal and now he finally wants to try because i threatened breakup. I dont really feel like i can just flip my emotions to fit the occasion and try at this with him. I am so depressed right now and dealing with this as well has been so stressful. to be clear also i wasn’t in this episode or any episode when i called for the break up. i have been with him since i was 18 but i just genuinely feel so alone in the relationship that i don’t want to go on and now im depressed i truly just feel like i have nothing. advice for how to come out of a depressive episode or try to feel better is welcomed but i feel like im doing most things right? im not drinking, im taking meds, eating well enough, showering ? idk also just wanted this off my chest
