I don't know what I'll do next. Lol I was feeling invincible and now I'm just getting tired again. I do a lot of silly things when I feel good. And now I'm like, oops. anyone else do dangerous or loose things during certain times? I don't know how to manage it.
I (27f) have been dating my autistic girlfriend (25f) for a month and I soon realized that she cannot handle any disappointments. For example we took a friend out to the store. This friend uses a cane to walk. Walking in the store became too much and he asked to be taken home. She was upset and drove at a dangerous speed to take him home and cried when dropping him off. We asked why she was upset and she said we ruined her day because we can't have fun anymore, when we actually had fun for hours already that day. Things like this happen ALL THE TIME and I don't know how to handle it. Please, advice needed. Thanks.
I dated someone bipolar and I'm bipolar, it didn't go too well.
First it went beautifully, like a fairy tale, then it crashed like some kind of horror movie.
The love is still there, but both of us were just knocking each other down and my ex decided it was time for us to break up which happened tonight.
I got so used to the routine of us talking on the phone every single night and us saying good morning every single morning.... I got used to spending weekends together and I know that not having that routine is going to be really hard for me and I'll probably fly off the handle and go through a crisis.
Since we just broke up tonight, and we said our goodbyes, it doesn't feel like much has changed, but once the loneliness sets in, I'm going to freak out.
Does anyone have tips so that doesn't happen?
Thanks.

I realize I have mental health struggles and I'm sadly coming to terms that I don't think I can do any relationship because it's not fair for the other party. My boyfriend wants me to get meds and professional help which I am all for and currently getting appointments for, and he said he's willing to put our relationship on hold and take a long break until I'm in better standing and in the mean time help me from a distance. Just not in person, since when I go through it, it puts us both through stress and he hates to see me suffer when we're together. I love and care about him deeply and I don't think it's fair for him to wait for me to possibly get better. How can I kindly tell him we need to just break up? I say that for him out of love. He's such a good man and I don't want to drag him down with me. He deserves a better woman.
Thank you.
First off, I do want to mention I'm trying to see a therapist to talk through this but unfortunately my appointments been pushed out for 4 months. I have a new relationship and though there hasn't been issues per se, I compare this new person to my past relationships where I've been cheated and used. It's to the point where I'm not sure if I'm noticing certain things that they are doing that was similar similar patterns to my ex, or if I'm just self-sabotaging, and making them fit into the patterns of my ex. My current relationship and I have tried to talk about this and they are aware. But I'm still worried that either I'm trying to turn a blind eye to red flags, or I'm self-sabotaging. I really cannot tell.
