so my ex and I were texting today the breakup is still pretty fresh, but he was going on about how my depression can’t be that bad and how it’s all in my head and im not working hard enough to fix it. then just straight up told me that he was done texting me till I can get my shit together, even tho we both wanted to make things work out.

when he says “get your shit together,” does it feel like concern at all, or more like pressure and dismissal dressed up as care
it doesn’t feel like care at all, it just feels like he wants to act like im fine to please him
this hurt to read. when someone turns your mental health into a flaw or a chore, i’ve learned it’s okay to step back.
my ex used to tell me my depression was “just mindset” too. that kind of minimizing messes with your head. it made me doubt my own pain for way too long
kinda reminds me of when my ex called me a narcissist because I am bipolar. and he referred to it as “ mood swings”. now obviously I don’t know your full situation but someone who loves you and is willing to work things out should be understanding of your struggles and mental health.
