never ending nightmare

Rach91

Hello I'm Rachel I've made a few posts on here anyway I have asperges syndrome and I suffer from depression. I am try to recover and when I finally start to feel happy and the depression starts to go away something always happens that brings me down again. I just feel that iI'm being punished amd that I don't deserve to be happy.  For example a few days ago my ex agreed to meet me as a friend I got really excited all set to meet him today for a coffee and to make a fresh start move on from the brake up and to start over as close friends that's all I want. Anyway this morning he texts me saying he can't make it because he has a job interview and starts his new job tomorrow. I just feel I, go into this bubble of happiness and someone comes along and bursts it. Just wanna am I we meant to be happy or are we all just living a never ending nightmare. I can't stand it anymore, I just wanna be happy again and for once can't something just go right for me or am I being punishment for, all the bad I've done.

  • No, Rach91, you're not being punished for all the bad you've done because it's only in your own mind that you think you've been bad to find a reason why things don't always go the way you would like them to go.

    Life has a habit of interfering with our desires at any old time and this is something we have to allow for and deal with in order to compromise because nothing is ever black and white. In this case, your ex is in a situation that demands his attention. It's not that he is trying to avoid meeting you - it's just an unfortunate coincidence that he has no control over. In any relationship there has to be a reasonable degree of give and take and it's often because this isn't present in the relationship that it fails.

    My advice to you is to realize that, yes, it's very dissapointing that this has come up but it won't be long before you two will agree to meet again and restore the exciting anticipation you felt before. There's a lot of wisdom in the old adage "patience is a virtue."
