Am I the issue?

I just got out of a relationship with a really nice girl, everything was going pretty well. There were no issues. We shared everything with each other, and we were there for each other. We'd listen to each other's problems. But one day I told her I had to go to the hospital because I had completely fractured my whole Right leg (long story). And at first she got all worried and told me to let her know when I got out. And once I was out of the hospital and all patched up, I had gotten on my phone to see this long paragraph or two explaining that she couldn't take it anymore and that it was too much for her. And I understand that. I had told her about my life and how stressful things have been for me, and I'm constantly getting injured. So that makes sense. But here's the thing, she had literally swore two days prior that she said she'd never leave me and that she'd always have my back. And then suddenly that happens. Like I understand the too much issue. But. I can't entirely help it.

I'm living in an emotionally abusive home and I'm not exactly in the best mental state right now because of it, I just want to feel loved and accepted for who I am. I don't go hurting myself all the time on purpose, I seriously just always manage to hurt myself without even trying. And I've explained that to her before. But I guess it was too much. Was it too much? Was I the problem? Is it too much to ask to be loved? Like genuinely loved?
