I don't think dealing with my past relationships like you say is really a good idea. The breakup is rather fresh (only about five months or so) and her and her new boyfriend are being as cruel as they can to me: phoning me up while having sex to tell me what they are doing and sending me death threats by text. I've not done anything to deserve that kind of treatment, but it's their way of bonding their new relationship I suppose.

The real kicker is that she's not really ill any more. She was once upon a time, but she's been stable and happy for a good couple of years now. While she might have a relapse if her support was pulled from under her, shes more than capable of making a go of it if she chose to. She just doesn't want to take life into her own hands; happy having workers sort her life out while claiming benefits that are better than any wage she would earn.

It's ironic really. The way she's treated me has been a massive factor in my degrading health, but I can't get help because of her. Talk about a trap.
