feeling lost

feeling lost

I never thought I’d myself scrolling on the Internet just to talk to someone because today just feels like I’m lost. My partner and I broke up about two weeks ago and I feel mentally gone. Not just the fact that I’m not with the person I love but my family life just isn’t what I hope it would be everyone’s moving around and getting so ahead in life. I’m just standing still.

I've had constant thought about ways to get the attention of my past partner that includes hurting myself, I hit my legs, and i started vaping again. I don't have a social life and everyone around me is happy, and in relationships. I'm always home alone and sit in my room not eating a whole day or showering for days. I don't know what to do. It almost feels silly that I’m writing something like this because I have such a comfortable life, but I just don’t feel anything anymore.

Hi there @Charlie0406 ,

Welcome to the forums. I'm sorry to hear how hard things are for you at the moment.

It sounds like the battle has been going on for a while in that you feel you have to 'prove' yourself to get the attention of your partner? I'm wondering if this in turn pushed him further away?

Do you see things improving of that you can get back with him in the future?

Please know we are here for you.
