    Hello everyone, I’m Jasmine.

    First off, I live off of SSI so I am unemployed at the moment. That leaves me with a lot of free time.
    My boyfriend works constantly, and he feels he’s neglecting me and I must say a part of me agrees… yet I totally understand his business at the same time.
    The problem is, I irrationally obsess over him all day long to the point where I do nothing but think about him, talk about how much I miss him, etc…
    I feel weak. I feel like I am a weak woman that is dependant on another and I don’t like it.
    I know I am better than that and that I don’t belong to him.

    I don’t have any real friends at the moment that I can confide in and more importantly invest my time in.
    I feel… alone.

    Dear Jasmine:

    Is that you in the photo? Very pretty. Would you like to share what your SSI is about? What diagnosis … ?

    A bit about your background, childhood, family contact in the present?

    Hi Jasmine, I can understand how you’d feel dependent based on having lots of time to yourself, but not having friends or someone to share with, or something to do.

    Instead, can you visualize what your ideal day would be like? And see if you can start taking steps toward it? I find that the best way to fight feeling negative is to take steps toward positivity. Even the tiniest steps make a difference toward feeling more like yourself and less of losing yourself in someone else’s life.
