patooks Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 My ex fiance broke up with me 1 1/2 years ago now and I've been single ever since. She had Depression, Anxiety, OCD, anti-social to an extent, and other issues. I was with her for 8 months, and we lived together for around 3 months. The question is, I still feel really guilty about the break up even though I did all I could to make it work and give her the best life possible, and for us and ultimately it was her decision to end it all. But my behavior changed when I was with her, I started drinking more and started mentally to lose myself, to a point I would cry when I was alone. Is there something wrong with me ? I'm 38 now, I have a very good job, my own place, my dogs, but I'm anti social, don't really have any friends to hang with apart from chatting on FB. Even 1 1/2 years later, I'm scared of dating again, some days are good, some are bad. I haven't heard from her in a year or so but I feel I'm still affected by her mentally. So is it possible to have mental health issues after been with someone like her who had all the issues above ? Link to post Share on other sites
LastAcorn99 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I’m sorry to learn about your situation, friend. While the behaviors of people struggling with mental disorder are beyond their control, I understand that it can be a very traumatic experience for their loved ones, even emotionally scaring them for life. For this reason, I’d strongly suggest that you seek the help of a counselor regarding this. Sending you prayers. Take care, okay? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
