Depression Supporters Support Group
This community is dedicated to spouses, children, relatives, co-workers and others who are actively supporting someone suffering from depression or other serious mental illness. Depression can bring about intense sadness, melancholia or despair that has advanced to the point of being disruptive, which can have a grave impact on the ability of others trying to help.
my boyfriend has been depressed for a long time so all i have seen him is not wanting to be with anyone but me and just sitting around doing nothing except on good days which are always fun. well now he is happy and hanging out with a ton of people and i should be happy for him but i can't be because i'm not happy. i don't want him to be unhappy i just want to be happy too. and he has so many friends and now i'm jealous of him and i don't know what to do anymore.
i feel like he's going to leave me now because if he's not sad, why should he have to deal with me when he can be happy and having a good life and i'm just a downer?
i don't know what is going to happen now.

Do you get depression as well or not?
You need to focus on yourself. Go and meet your friends and family and pay attention to your hobbies. Can you join in with his friends?
Keep talking.
Good luck
and only like one of his friends like me.
I sympathise with your problem, I live with a guy with depression, it takes it out of you. You look like a nice person. I am sure that people like you. My advice, for what it is worth, is get out and do some volunteer work. I guarantee there is some organisation in your town that will kiss your feet if you come and help them, even if you had two heads, BOTH with bad breath! Just a couple of hours a week.See how it goes.
thanks. 8]
