Iāll try to keep this brief but informative. On mobile blah blah blah.
My girlfriend and I have been together about eight months so weāre getting into the more serious stages of things and Iāve been on owning up about my mental health more. Iām normally a very private person when those things are involved I would rather solve my own issues than bother someone else with them. Anyway Iāve been having a really rough couple of days this week and Iāve had two mental breakdowns in the past two days. Last night my girlfriend āMaryā came over to comfort me. She was there a few hours and then left. Normally that would be fine but I told her I needed her. I just needed her to hold me. I didnāt have the energy to make idle conversation and I just wanted to be comforted.
After a little while I was just laying in the bed in the dark. She came in the room with me and just laid there on her phone. I had told her I just wanted her to hold me prior to this. She didnāt say anything and asked me if I was going to talk to which I replied I didnāt have the energy to do so. I could see she was slipping into depression too and I thought it was okay because Iām here and sheās here so we could just comfort one another.
She left. She said she had a lot of things to take care of (sheās going out of town) and I looked like I was falling asleep (I had told her I wasnāt) so she didnāt see a point in staying. I told her to go ahead and go because in my mind if you can see me breaking down in front of you and all you think of are the things you have to take care of then itās a pretty easy decision.
The problem is Iām still depressed and she still left. I donāt know if I want to continue this. She said she has her own issues and stressors going on right now and I understand that but I needed her last night and she left. I canāt get over that.
Tdlr:Iām in the middle of a depressive episode and my girlfriend left me at my house alone because she had things to take care of
