How to quit talking about sadness to partner?

Ive been dealing with MDD for 8 years. Every day, I feel hopeless and weighed down. I feel stuck in life.

However, I have a very supportive and loving partner who helps a lot. Im very grateful for him. I feel like I talk about my problems and sadness too much though, you know?

Like almost every day I have low moods. About 80% of the time when he asks how Im doing or whats wrong then Ill talk about how I feel depressed or exhausted. He says he understands and that it doesnt bother him, and that I dont weigh him down or anything, but I still want to talk to him about it less.

How can I quit focusing on how depressed I am? How do I quit talking about it so often? How do I start pausing and thinking before I say anything?

Thank you for the help everyone ♥︎
