I am glad he is so helpful to you, that is great, but you have to try to get some stability without it being all up to him so that he can also depend on you if the time comes and so that he doesn't ever get to the point where it becomes too much of a burden for him to carry. I think you would be better off taking the medication and seeing a therpist, to help you become more stable in yourself and not so dependent on another person, for the simple fact that we never know what tomorrow will bring and it is good if we can be strong on our own when we need to be. I hope things get better for you.
Robs not doing everything. He's helping me do things. There was a time where I wouldn't go ANYWHERE alone & now I'm pretty good at going places on my own. I also never looked for my own jobs & "I" got myself a nice happy job at Samsung! I use to NEVER talk to people I didn't know & now I talk up a storm to anyone who says hi to me, I don't go out of my way to talk to people, yet. I use to get really scared if a stranger yelled at me for something I accidently did wrong. Now I will choose to ignor them or tell them off (depends on the situation).
7 years ago, I would NEVER have made plans to go to the zoo with people I didn't know & now I'm going with 2 people I don't know this june!
