Is it normal for your self esteem to fall this low?

[Anonymous]

After my breakup with my ex girlfriend I’m extremely self conscious about being outside anymore it’s really hard to go places

[Avicenna]

It’s not unusual to Jack some confidence after a breakup, but it’s usually not that bad as your situation.

[Asker]

Yeah I just feel hideous

[melnc]

I think you are afraid of seeing her with someone else, so you hide to avoid that feeling.

The narrator describes a turbulent relationship marked by emotional and physical abuse. Early on, they revealed their autism, which their partner initially accepted. However, the partner's behavior quickly became volatile, culminating in violent outbursts. The narrator endured being hit and called names, but tried to forgive and maintain the relationship. When the partner's sister moved in, her behavior worsened, leading to safety concerns and threats.

Despite efforts to sustain the relationship, their living situation deteriorated, marked by unsanitary conditions with poorly trained dogs, escalating the narrator’s stress. The partner continued to lash out both emotionally and physically, even kicking the narrator at one point.

Repeated attempts to communicate and resolve issues failed, including one final incident during a car ride when the partner accused the narrator of making her walk home. This event marked the end of their relationship.

No, you need professional help. It is only a break-up. It is a part of life.

[Asker]

Seems like you're better off then and know it. No reason to feel down rather I would be happy that its over

[LiamJHayden]

I've never experienced a bad breakup, but I know watch you describe is not unusual. How long ago was the break? If a few days, it will likely pass soon. If months ago, you might need some counseling.

[Asker]

It’s been a year

[Nirmroth]

If you get dumped its normal to loose some self esteem but not that hard, seek help

[jahaims]

It's because you get your worth from others not from who you are as a person
