My bf is depressed.

He’s honestly holding me down so much. He’s been depressed lately and for the past two weeks doesn’t even talk to me anymore. I’m not happy, I’m really not; I would feel so guilty for breaking up with him and leaving him, but I need to think about myself too. Someone please talk sense into me 😢

honestly logged back on thinking about making a post like this, word from word too. dont feel bad but just try to be there and be a ear for him whenever hes ready, slowly get him outdoors or take him somewhere that favors his interest.

im trying to do the same tbh but its like hes either too busy playing his video games or he doesn't want to be bothered with me anymore. his friends are getting fed up with him too, im getting there but i also have to have room for understanding on what could've made him get into this mental state

I just hope you are never in the same state he is in and have the people you care about most are thinking about leaving you.

@Cigarguy101 I have been severely depressed before and now that I’ve been mentally stable for years I know what a burden and how negative it can be for others.

Frank communication is the only answer. Both need to be prepared to hear things they don't like.

Let him deal with his depression without u…

Why do women care more about themselves and their happiness than their partner.and trying to get them happy. What about commitment.

What ever happened to staying with someone in the good and bad times.

Ur not abandoning him by prioritizing mental health for both of you. Compassion isn’t sacrificing your wellness forever. He owes it to himself and to you to seek help. Dependency isn’t love; it’s inertia. Talk to him firmly, kindly, and encourage him to take action

Your loyalty is commendable, but in the end. You need to take care of numeral uno.

well first

is this a normal state of mind for him?
is he getting any help?
did he stop taking meds?

basically - is this new or is he just coasting?
AnonymousJSS · 22-25, F
@Pretzel No, no and yes.
He’s been depressed before but he would at least still talk to me and want to see me once daily. Lately he just stays home all day and only calls me when I tell him I need his attention, so I feel like he’s also bored of me now.

@AnonymousJSS if he isn't getting help and stopped taking his meds he's not going to get any better.

might be time to tell him that he needs to do something about himself - that's for his own good -

if he's not going to do anything about it - then what you have is what you're going to have in the future

if you don't like they way he's acting...you might have to dump him.

Women are not rehabilitation centers for broken men.

That help?

@PDXNative1986 it should!
