Break up
Long story short, I have Bipolar I. Four months ago I lost a close cousin, which triggered a psychotic episode. During that time, I ended my relationship with my girlfriend of a year.
I’m stable now, actively in therapy, and doing a lot better but looking back, I know I messed up. I love her. Reading through our old messages made it painfully clear that the things she tried to tell me were valid, and I didn’t handle them well.
I’m not really sure what to do at this point. I just needed somewhere to get this off my chest. I don’t think I deserved the way she showed up for me, and that’s something I’m coming to terms with. Keeping this vague since she used to be on here.
