I think we're both as bad as each other tbh.
I've never really opened up since my last serious relationship which ended badly and how hurt I got, now I just think its easier to not show much emotion anymore

But then aren't you living a half relationship? I can't imagine being in a relationship where I wasn't able to say what was going on for me or how I was feeling.... And I'd hate it the other way round.
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
I made that mistake, and we’d been married for years, with kids. I thought I was making things easier on my husband by not being open with him but it turns out him trying to guess how I was feeling and what I was thinking was way, way harder for him. That behaviour from me brought us the closest we’ve ever come to losing each other. Ironically, I thought our marriage was over because he didn’t understand me .....
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

It's been like this for years, half the time I don't think she's interested.Originally Posted by Suzi
But if you don't ask her, how do you know? I've been convinced my husband isn't interested in me, but when we've talked about it then it's turned out nothing of the sort....

Tbh I don't know what to say to her she knows I'm down at the moment just would be nice if she asked how I was feeling and offered some reassurances.
Supposed to be going down to my sisters tonight with the family for a meal but I really don't feel like going at the moment, just had my parents round for a cuppa and I hardly spoke to them
I'm stressing about work 2mos and who I should even talk to about lowering my hours for now as the lady who was dealing with my rehab works lates so I never see her & I can't speak to my boss at the moment due to what he did last week + need to tell them I'm back on medication. I'm just worried how they'll react.
I've booked in to see the mental health practitioner for Friday at my doctors.
Seems to me that you worry about a lot of people around you and how they will react. This is something I am doing all the time as well. And eventhough I myself can not stop it at the moment I do know its not good for me and not for you. You are in a vulnerable state at the moment. And that means taking care of number 1. That is you. So try to look at yourself and what you need. Try to not think about others and what they think or how they will react. You do not know how they will react.
Is it possible to send the lady thats dealing with that an email? Or give her a call?
When I was in therapy one thing that came up was that I should not look at other people for what I need. As you know we are not mind readers. So if you need something from your girlfriend or your family please just ask them or talk to them about it. After I told my family how I was doing there was a bit more understanding and they tried to help. Even if it is hard. It will help.
Thing is I don't think there's much they can do, mainly me stressing about work etc. I know there concerned, thing is I don't think any of my family know what to do.
All I can tell them is that I'm struggling badly atm feels like I just want to cry but then I'm thinking am I just looking for sympathy??
I just want to get back to normal and get back on track at the moment it definitely feels like I'm going backwards again and I don't know what to do to get out of it.
I've got my parterns parents coming round 2mos for dinner. I know her mums concerned about me as she's messaged and noticed it boxing day
