My first relationship ruined my mental health enough that I lowkey have given up on dating. And yet I’m so lonely still. It’s a shitty feeling

Do you hang out with friends and family often? Maybe start there if possible

My first relationship triggered a lot of bad shit. Landed me in the psych ward and residential treatment. I stayed single for 4 years after. But then I healed and found love again! I'm currently still recovering from that one tho 😭😂 I think this time imma be okay by the 2 year mark tho

Unfortunately I don’t have any close friends, and I live away from my family. I’m kind of out here alone

Hmm maybe you could try making some new friends online if there aren’t many ppl near you?

Lowkey I feel like unless you’re on your college yak there aren’t very many chill ppl to run into on here that you can actually hang with, plus it’s geared toward anonymity. I was gonna say maybe like discord or something in a topic you’re interested in or gaming or something. Best practice is to just show up to as many events on campus as possible and set plans up with chill ppl you meet

It's okay. Take your time. Healing isn't linear. Ppl experience grief differently. Bad breakups, or the end of certain relationships do literally register to your nervous system like a close loved one has died Sometimes a bit trickier, your nervous system gets thrown into critical confusion and breaks down bc the person is still out there and alive which conflicts with the whole them being dead thing
