It will only hurt you but the other party also. I am not saying sit and home and be miserable, go out with friends, find hobbies for your self that are good for you.

If you are not getting help, please reach out and find some it will help you feel better and once you are feeling better, then you can in jump back in the dating pool.

Good luck and Thank you for giving a clearer picture of your struggle.
Yes, I have a good psychiatrist (good med combination) and I've been in therapy for a long time (made wonderful progress in therapy--I have come so far, it would take a novel to describe). I think that I could handle a relationship if the other person were in about the same place as me--accepting of the fact that people get scared and depressed sometimes, but able to work skillfully with themselves. But part of me wants the benefits of being alone, the freedom for one thing, but also the ability to devote my attention to my own healing.

Mike
