Hi everyone.

I think this might be the best place to put this thread; sorry if it's not.

I just went through a very painful split with someone--enough pain to not talk about it openly yet (but my T is aware at least). He and I only dated for a few weeks. I am constantly in a cycle of going on dating sites and getting my heart broken, and I think this is turning into a problem. It's much easier said than done to simply leave the sites/apps because I keep getting back on them within a week, or even within 24 hours of a split. I never allow myself time to heal. I keep drowning in fear that I'll never be able to feel or find love with my depressive and anxiety disorders. But each time I get back on a site/app, I feel desperate.

I honestly have issues with becoming attached with people romantically very, very, very quickly and then having them split with me very quickly as well. I feel like I'm starting to sink into a cycle that I just really want to break out of, but I feel weak when this feels like a powerful cycle... I'll be seeing my T tomorrow. My T is already aware of my situation, but I'm starting to really, really feel bothered.

Has anyone else perhaps faced a similar issue? If so, do you have any tips or advice as I try to break this cycle? I live in a fairly loveless environment. It's a bit cold (emotionally), so I can kind of see how this cycle has formed.

Thank you for any insight.
