Now. He's said it's over. And I'm sat on the kitchen floor crying. Nothing but a laptop. The not self harming has gone out the window.
Before I met him I was an alcoholic. Drinking a couple of litres of whisky or vodka or both a day. I was suicidal. I was self harming. I was lonely, and depressed, and weak.
He met me. We got together. I didn't need the drink anymore. I didn't want to die because I'd leave him behind. I didn't self harm for months because he didn't like me doing it. I felt loved, happy, and strong.
Now he's gone. And so is all that.
I'm not meant for love. I can't do it. Some might say bipolar can be overcome. But how can I overcome it when it makes me such a difficult person to handle? To love?
I'm unlovable. Everything is gone.
I'm back to square -1. And the world is just as cold and empty as it always was :'(

I don't know you, but I think you are far from unloveable. We may be difficult to love, but that only means it takes an incredible person to love us. We are worth that person, and you will find your person too. I would say you have to love yourself first- but I know how difficult that can be. Just try and love yourself enough to not harm yourself. Maybe just enough to be neutral. Best wishes, be safe
