Hi DeutzFahr,
Thank you for your post. We are so sorry to hear about the breakdown of your long-term relationship. Well done for sharing this during such a difficult time. The lovely people here will have kind words, advice and understanding for you.
There is no getting around it, breakups are deeply challenging and can shake our sense of stability. With plans to propose soon, it sounds like this must have come as a shock to you and how you envisioned your future together which must feel incredibly distressing. Anyone who has been through a major breakup knows just how much this can impact your mental health and wellbeing.
It sounds like you are carrying a lot of this on your own, which is a lot for one person to hold. If you are interested, it might be worthwhile booking in for an appointment with your GP to discuss some extra support options such as
a mental health care plan for access to subsidised support such as a psychologist. You are also always welcome to give the Beyond Blue counsellors a ring on 1300 22 4636,
or chat to them online here.
In the meantime, how has the past week or so been for you? Has there anything or anyone that has been helpful?
Thank you again for posting. We hope that this community can be a supportive space for you during this time and that you can treat yourself gently as you navigate through this.
Kind regards
Sophie M
