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 😢

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?

@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.
