Hello & Welcome, SarahK.

Yes, this is bad, even cruel timing.

I'm not an assessor of relationships. To me, this indicates the basic relationship is "high risk" regardless of events.

You've recently suffered at least two major life-stressors: relationship rejection and career/job loss. What's in your self-care bag that has helped in the past? Do you need more active support than you are receiving to get back on your feet?

I see you've found the Addictions forum. Please consider also asking over in the Relationships & Communication forum.
