Recently my long term partner broke up with me because they no longer were in love with me. In a conversation they told me two people with depression should probably have never been together. Is this a cop out or is there some truth in this? I always believed because we both suffered at different times we would be the best people to support each other as we really understood what the other was going through.

Bipolar I, major depressive disorder, ptsd and depression
For those of you who were initially diagnosed with "unipolar" or just Major depressive disorder and were later diagnosed with bipolar disorder, what were some of the main signs that you noticed that indicated you might have manic symptoms as well?
Or what made you/others realize that your "normal" state was actually a manic state?
I used to talk a mile a minute and I’d have severe mood swings; since I’m medicated I don’t have any manic episodes
Mine is anxiety, depression, and PTSD. What other matches are out there? and what do you think the difference and the similarities are? like between someone with anxiety and depression, and someone with ODD and depression, or bipolar and depression?
I have this Bipolar I mixed state & Borderline Personality Disorder
I am so angry. I hardly ever watch shows like Dr Phil because of the sensationalism. But yesterday I was scrolling thru the channels and saw he was interviewing a Bi Polar woman and a woman with DID. Well the family of the Bi Polar woman and the “Dr.”. went on to show a violent and abusive young woman who swung from depression to violence several times a day. She physically attacked family, friends and was completely paranoid and lied all the time. The audience ate it up. I have never… read more
I in no way doubt that the woman has an illness. And yes, I can feel for anyone who goes thru what we do. My objection was that the producers found and exploited these woman to make a show. Instead… read more
