Relationship Stress / by discreetWater4197

...See more This is my first relationship and I have no idea what I’m doing. But neither does my boyfriend because this is his first real relationship as well. At first, everything was great. We took things slow, communicated well, and he even said “I love you” but lately he’s been getting distant. And I don’t know how to help. He deals with depression and I know he’s busy and that his parents are really getting on him for his grades, but I’ve just been feeling lonely. I’ve tried talking to him about it and he told me it had nothing to do with me but he hasn’t really let me in on anything else. and now, whenever I try to talk to him outside of school, he’s always busy. and lately I just feel like he’s kind of abrupt with me. With summer break coming soon, I just want to wait it out so finals and everything is done and hopefully we can get back to the way it was before. I just want to support him, but I also feel like he’s not giving anything into the relationship anymore. I don’t really know what to do. help?

...See more My boyfriend is going through depression right now. We are both in high school and living with our parents. He wants to see a therapist but he is worried about his parents reaction since it didn’t go over well with his other siblings Lately he’s just been distant. I talked to him about it and he said he slowly gets distant from everyone and he doesn’t know why. And this distance has been wearing on my own mental health because I have anxiety and so I overthink everything. But I just want to support him through this. I think I’m going to offer this app to him but is there anything else I can do to support him along the way?
