Guys this is really taking a toll on me. I was pretty emotionally stable but in the last week or two I'm turned into a bag of emotionally unstable shit.

I find I just want to sleep all the time
I want to be strong for my boyfriend because i dont want him to feel like he has to put me back together
its an ldr i have no one here in person i live alone with my dad and im not comfortable confiding in him
I just need someone to hold me while i cry or rub my back and tell me it will be okay or something...I don't even know the people in person except one that I've been trying to convince to live and it's affecting me this much

all i want to do is sleep and idk if that is even a good way of dealing with it

Hey sweetpea. Firstly, it's great and amazing of you to be helping people in need of comfort and friendship. Not everyone's as kind as that. But you need to realise you can't control how she/he feels. You can't take her problems as your own - you shouldn't. Her pain is her pain and only she can get herself through it, all you can do is point her the right direction but not in the expense of your own happiness.

You're going through such a hard time and it's clear that other people's problems are becoming heavy burdens on your shoulders. I'd advise that you tell them you're going through a tough time yourself and you just can't help them as of now - you'll be amazed at how they'll be more than willing to help you through.

You need help, too. Don't be afraid to ask for it - because help will be given.
