Help with depressed boyfriend
| Fri, 04-16-2004 - 9:56pm |
Hi, I'm new to the board. I came here hoping for some advice.
I'm in a long distance relationship with a man who has depression.
He has had it for a very long time and has been on lots of different
medications. They even tried electro shock therapy on him.

Anyways, lately he is not feeling and is numb. He says this has happened
to him before and is a side effect of the medications. It is so hard
not to take it personally when he can't express any emotions that he misses me
or even just happiness or excitement about anything. It's not how he used to be.
I want to stay with him but I don't know how to deal with this. Is there anything
I can do to help him through this?
