Boyfriend doesn’t understand

chloebologna July 30th, 2022

so today is my birthday (july 29) and my bf asked why i look sad all the time and that i shouldnt be sad on my birthday. & he blames himself for not doing more for my bday but its not that. I’m just depressed and can’t pretend to be happy. Idk like its hard to fake a smile these days. I’ve been dealing with so much stress from work and pressure from my family about school & stuff & him questioning my sadness and why im always down doesn’t help. He hates when im feeling like this or when i push him away. Idk what to do anymore. Nothing cheers me up.

hi chloe i understand that you feel its hard too fake a smile these days and been dealing with so much stress from work and pressure from your family/school and work, also having to handle being depressed around your boyfriend who just doesn't seem to understand it, and blames himself. That must be hard and im so sorry you are going through that. Have you tried to speak to him about your depression to raise awareness to him about what you are struggling with? Sometimes when an induvial speaks out about it to there loved one, it gets more attention<3

Best wishes<3
