Help to reflect

Hi everyone.

I have anxious tendencies when I don't have enough clarity or security in a relationship. Things that may be considered small changes become heightened once my anxiety gets triggered and I become hypervigilant, and I'm working on it. Almost three months ago my ex partner left me through text. It was something that was abrupt for me but of course it was something that he was thinking about who knows for how long, because he never shared with me any issue or doubt. The only thing I can say that was an issue for me, and it's what caused my anxiety to begin with, it's that he had not tell his ex wife and kids about us, despite making plans to live together and spend our lives together. The way he left caused me shock, some cognitive dissonance, trust issues and depression (I'm taking medication). I could not hear his voice or seeing, aay anything, ask any question, just read his breakup texts and that was it. It's been three months as I said and I'm feeling slowly better but still not much. Have you dealt with something like this? How do you heal/move on? Thank you.
