Background: last relationship ended after 5 months (second chance with high school boyfriend, 7 years later) because he literally stopped texting me. Ghosted. He’d sustained a trauma, refused any form of help, and shut me out. This occurred in late November but draaaagggggggeeeeddddddd through December because I kept trying to reach out.

My boyfriend suffers from anxiety, depression, and ADD. I also just found out he’s on a mood stabilizer in addition to his ADD meds.

He’s been off his mood stabilizer for two... three... days.

My usually boisterous and demonstrative boyfriend is now withdrawn and terse. He declines my calls, and we talk on the phone daily, if not multiple times a day.

This relationship is relatively new. I’m still figuring out who he is. At the same time, I don’t like this at all. It makes me wonder if I love the pill’s side effects.

I refuse to beg for someone’s love again.

AITA for thinking about giving up?
