My girlfriend and I have been together for 6 years, and neither of us had much experience before we settled for each other. We've generally had what I'd describe as a healthy 'loving' relationship, we rarely argue and if we do we make sure to be as respectful as possible, we are generally very affectionate towards each other.
However, since we moved in with each other in a new town earlier this year things have been tougher. Where sex for both of us feels more like a 'chore' because we haven't done it for a few days, or even a week, and generally I feel like we have no 'direction' or joint aspirations.
Firstly my new job has made me a much more anxious person where I am almost constantly anxious throughout the day, especially when I am WFH. This anxiety makes me generally less motivated and driven in my day to day life to the point where I feel like I'm doing things for the sake of doing them, and even though I do the basics, I don't take care of myself as well as I used to e.g. going for haircuts less frequently, buying fewer clothes etc. I would also say when we do take breaks together, or go out, I find myself not having the best time, but this isn't just with her, I think generally I find it hard to relax and switch off these days, and generally am not comfortable in myself.
My girlfriend and on the other hand has done well to carve out herself a life in the new town, has made some new friends, joined gym classes, and seems to have found a job that she seems to (now) like (although her job is notorious for being fairly stressful). She is however very indecisive about her life, one minute she's thinking of quitting her job because she hates it, next minute she really likes it, next minute she talks about wanting to go travelling for a couple of months, then next she wants to start a business. Basically I think she's quite lost.
All in all, we have been in.a relationship that feels precarious and not as strong as before, we mutually decided to take a break for a few weeks, although she seemed way more up for having a break than I did. She maintains that she wants things to work, and envisages a future together, but does say it will be hard with my mental health in the place it is.
I'm taking this time now to work on my mental health, starting on beta blockers this week, taken some time off work and starting therapy to understand why I feel so anxious all the time.
TL:DR been together for 6 years, moved in together a year ago, my mental health has been in a bad shape (less motivated, reuced libido), relationship has generally felt directionless, decided to have a few weeks from each other. Is this usually a sign of an end, or could it go either way?
