Question : I have been feeling a lot of anxiety. My boyfriend moved and as a result we broke up, I just recently got into a relationship with someone and he cheated on me, I could possibly have an STI. I am just so sad. And feel like giving up. I am so empathetic and I care for people more than I care for myself. Should I try find another relationship or should I take time to be alone?
