What to do when your boyfriend doesn't understand depression?
Hi Ilove my boyfriend (at least I think I do) but he's soo terrible in emotional stuff especially when it comes to depression but I desperately feel I need emotional support right now and he's my only close family living under the same roof. I tried to explain him, I made a compilation of online stuff accurate for me for him to read but I fear he has forgotten about most of it and he is still so oblivious about most of the illness. (He has said stuff like emotional fluctuation is worse than being depressed although it's actually a sign of getting better when one feels good too!)
I feel so stuck with the problem... It's almost impossible for me to talk about my problems it usually ends up in a fight because the stupid stuff he says really irritates me and there it goes.
