I (M19) have been experiencing pretty severe anxiety, from myself, and my relationship. I often feel like I am a burden to others and that I don't deserve the love others give me, and when others do express genuine care i doubt their true intentions, whether they are just trying to tell me what I want to hear, or they are trying to hide how they are feeling to spare my feelings. That is how i have felt in my relationship recently, and I've spent various afternoons in my apartment doing nothing but waiting for my girlfriend (F19) to respond to snaps or texts, driving myself crazy wondering what she could possibly be doing instead. i have checked her location and snap scores often when i feel this way, which i understand is wrong, but almost like picking a scab i can't help it. I have confronted her about my fears of her not being invested in our relationship and of her being unloyal, and every time she reassured me that she is not and that she loves me very much, but my anxiety always brings me back to the negative thoughts. last night we both talked and decided to take some space from each other, which i think should be good for both of us, because i think she was my main way of feeling happy, and i need to find a way to be happy without her so i'm not putting this pressure on her in the relationship, but also because I can't depend on her for my happiness and need my own independence. I've been anxious about this all night/morning even though we were both very mature and caring in the way we decided we needed space, and i just can't help but think things are going to end poorly, or that she doesn’t love me anymore, and that has been interfering in my ability to find other outlets for my happiness, and I fear i may not learn anything with this space and end up losing her forever. Are their any tips on how i can avoid my anxiety to find myself again?
