Nah, he doesn't worry I'll hurt myself or worse. He knows I won't. He doesn't worry I'll never get well. He believes I will. 

He just worries that I'm feeling down or anxious. He says he "absorbs" my emotions. That he's so invested in how I'm doing that my illness brings him down. Even on my good days, even in my good weeks, he can just sense the little anxieties that pop up. Even when I overcome them, the mere fact that they occur puts him in a bad mood wishing I were happier. 

Am I overreacting, or is that some backwards co-dependent bullshit? He even says he's so concerned with my emotions because of his own abusive upbringing... which I get. I'm just hurt that I work on myself every day, am on the waitlist for a real Linehan-certified DBT program, and rather than address his own emotional entanglement, he took the easy way out and broke up with the basket case. 

I'll take literally any support. I just feel really alone.
