What do you do when your mental issues once again disrupt your relationships?

I have basically all of my relationships destroyed by my issues. SO now I have friends who don't know anything about them. Last night, he broke up with me because of the same issues yet I don't really feel like I can be friends with someone who knows so much about me, knowing that they will also ruin the friendship I have as well. I feel like a bloody warning walking around. He thinks I don't feel the same about him anymore but I do. Im just utterly devastated at this point.

I would stay out of all relationships until you fix your issues. It's a big mistake to think finding someone will save you. You have to save yourself.

@Reject I do understand that, so i never went into a relationship/friendship thinking they would 'save' me . Thats not the point of the relationship.

@Colourflame Just making sure you knew, what is the point of it then?

Because I love him and want to give him the best of me and a good time with me. If possible a future together too

@Colourflame Hmm. I'm not sure what your issues are, but this post makes them seem like the extreme kind. Resolving them should be your priority. Even before him. If you try to be there for him instead he'll only become another victim of your problems. Work on yourself for him if you wish, but don't give him anything until you're better off.
