What Advice Is There For Helping Spouses Or Significant Others To Understand What Helps And What Doesn't Help A Depressed Person?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have tried to explain to my husband many times what helps and what hurts when I'm having an episode. He always tries to help. He's very devoted. But he falls back on what makes sense to him and gets offended when I tell him it's hurtful and not helpful. Then we have conflict and my episode gets much worse. It's a dangerous pattern. It's not good for my depression or our marriage.

How Do You Guys Deal With Grief?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am terrified of grief. I have felt it in the past and it is the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. Far more than any physical pain ever felt. I do not want to feel it. I do not know how to let myself feel it without wanting to die or self harm in order to move my pain elsewhere. I feel like I will grieve forever. I do not want to do that. I cannot live like that.

Try 'the shack'. The authors' experiences in his own life are perhaps equivalent to yours, but the book is fictional, but algorithm to his life

How Do I Feel Better About Someone Judging Me Over My Families Actions?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Last Saturday my boyfriend was invited to a family function at my uncles house. My dad is an alcoholic which he was well aware of. But my dad got drunk and fell down infront of him. He is also a vegetarian and my family eats meat and he says he didn't fit in with my family and for those reasons he wants to break up. Then he changed his mind and says he needs a few days of space away from me because I come with my family and he needs some time to think about the relationship. I am feeling so… read more

to have a healthy relationship the person has to accept your life the good and bad. as if they were in the same situation you would do it with him. Love means acceptance and being supportive
