my relationship has broken down and i dont know if i will cope but at the same time i couldnt cope because of my depression, we both suffer from depression and it doesnt help because it both brings us down. i love her and she loves me and i want to be with her but its just not working for us at the moment while we both suffer with our depression. i am really fighting hard to keep out of the super depressive hole and i dont know if i will be able to. i have always had problems with relationships but not due to depression before and this time it is even worse, i just dont know what to do. i am already having a bad patch as it is and I NEED YOUR OPINIONS PLEASE!!

Why not go to RELATE the couples counselling place. It may help both of you.

jeez hun. I know you must be going through a tough time. You say that she has depression aswell? Well you know it might not have anything to do with in terms of her leaving you, she may she need to work on her self and try to make her self better. And it kind of seems that thats what you need to do as well. Maybe once you've both tried to get back on track you can find each other again.

Can't you work on this together? What a great support system you would be for each other. If not, then just take a break to work on things your own. Don't get all bummed about a "failed" relationship. It will be ten times better when YOU take care of yourself. :)

I agree. Try counseling before throwing in the towel. If the relationship is worth the effort.
