Hi I'm TLA
I have just come out of the most damaging relationship of my life apart from the ones in childhood. I've discovered that I have Obsessive Love Disorder, as a result of not feeling loved as a child. I was sexually abused from the age of 2 till 14.
I've been doing a lot of reading about it, started a blog about it and finally today took the step to completely block my ex from my life. I wish I felt better about taking that first positive step but I don't.
I'm floating in the abyss. I'm stable and not suicidal, been through that. Just terrified, and lonely.
I'm taking steps to get the psychological support I need, well at least I'm procrastinating about it. I have good support around me who will keep encouraging me to take the steps to recovery. I need to do this for myself.
Any advise at this point would be greatly appreciated.
