I got to bed and thats when I really think about things..life etc. I have been having a rough time lately and I know I need therapy. I am not depressed but I feel I am heading that way. I cant stand my dad anymore. I am 21 years old and still treated like a child...only expected to respect the every wish of his will and never allowed to complain. Heaven forbid If do. I cant stand to be in a room alone with him. I dont even look at him in the eyes. I feel the only time with I am happy is when I am with my boyfriend. Everything disappears and I can just be. I dont have to worry about anything. I dont have to worry about my friends bullshit, my family turmoil or the increasing stress of my studies. I love him so much and yet I am so petrified of losing him. He also has emotional issues so our relationship has been rocky. I know I dont "need" him but I truly love him and could see myself being with him for the rest of my life...I dont want to lose him. I am a wreck and know I shouldnt be like this....I just want to stop crying.

It seems like you really enjoy the time you spend with your bf... And if you really love him, which it sounds like you do, you'll make it. Just don't be afraid, live your life fully, with no limits. <p> Many guys tend to deny their emotional instability, including myself, because we want to appear strong, so we can give you the comfort and affection that you deserve. Remember, we can only keep this up for so long, and we may breakdown. I have. So regretful statements may be hollered or wailed, when in reality, they were just fears and anxieties, in which he didn't know how to deal with. This is the start of the breakdown. Don't let it scare you away though. Just listen to each other, and don't be afraid to express how much he means to you, and how you care for him.
