Should Two People With Depression Enter Into A Relationship?
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

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.

Or what made you/others realize that your "normal" state was actually a manic state?
