i love my boyfriend more than anything in the world. he's the sun in my life. but i can't help but feeling like a burden to him. i don't want to be the sad girlfriend but i can't help it. i don't want him to deal with my problems but i don't know who else to tell them to if not him. his ex was very mentally ill and he had to deal with the bulk of it. she was not kind to him and made him feel like it was his fault for some of the things she did. it was not. i don't want him to ever feel that way again. i want him to have a happy girlfriend and i don't want him to deal with my problems like he did with hers. i recently started birth control for hormonal reasons and its making my mind go haywire. i'm having moodswings and long crying spells and i don't know how to deal with it but i don't want to become a burden to him. most nights i just cry for a few hours until i'm too tired to cry anymore. i dont know what to do anymore.
