so the guy ive been talking to said he wanted a break about a week ago and i respected that so we havent spoken since then. in the message he said he wasnt losing or hasnt lost feelings but that he felt bad because he felt as if he was leading me on and wasting my time. how can i get over this?? im so head over heels for him and i liked him for a long time before we even ever spoke to eachother. hes also the first guy to meet my father and etc. he was so sweet to me and said the sweetest things, and not knowing when we will speak again hurts. ive been randomly crying everyday because it just randomly hits me and my heart aches. i sleep with a bear and blanket he got me for christmas, im so sad about this. i feel so deeply about him and i only want good things for him but wow my heart hurts i wish he wouldve said something sooner. i just wanted advice on how to cope with this

im currently struggling w sh and uhmm ive been doing it for a few months now, ive done it before i started prozac and ive just continued i guess but anyways, my friend is also struggling with this and they mentioned it to me. ive been trying my best to comfort them and try to help them avoid doing it but it never seems to work. it kinda is a lot to carry the weight of that and then also the weight of my own struggles, i am the only person who knows they do it. sometimes they randomly say “my leg hurts” and like idk if they want me to ask why?? but i already know why.. so im not sure what to say at that point. i know its not easy, i just dont know how to comfort her while caring for myself cus i dont know anymore
