JamVan Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 My Girlfriend has recently gone through some major happenings (which I won't go into right now) in her life and it has resulted in her falling into a major depression. She is seeking help for this, but in the mean time she is very withdrawn and at times says very hurtful things. She comes back later and says she's sorry and doesn't mean them, but this is all really hard to deal with. I love her and won't give up on her, but she has asked for everyone to leave her alone and let her deal with things. She has told me she loves me, and does not have an issue where her and I are concerned, so I've stepped right off and am waiting for her to come to me. She called last night 4 times but I didn't hear the phone. The last time she called she left a message saying she's sorry for being such a B***h to me lately and could I please call her in the morning? SO I did and I could tell by her tone she was back down again. SHe stated she was drunk and didn't remember calling me. So I just said ok and let her go. I'm sort of at a loss of what I should do? I know I have to give her some space, but how do I do that and still be supportive? I don't want to lose her and she has said she doesn't want to lose me either, but she just needs to be alone at the moment as she's not happy with herself so how can she be happy with anything else??? Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites

Author JamVan Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 Jelman, I hear what you are saying, there seems to be no answers regarding this situation, but I did come across this website: http://www.depressionfallout.com/ . I have found someone whom I can talk to and vent because you can't do it to the sufferer, which I can say helps a lot. Going through this is worse than losing your mate to breakup or something like that. They appear almost non-living and all you can do is watch and hope you have enough strength to see them through it. I get all sorts of feeling all the time, some like I'm there for her, some I can't take this anymore, etc...Then I think, if she had cancer or heart disease or anything would I be leaving? NO! It's a sickness and I have to stay strong and remain with her through it. Thanks for the reply tough Jelman. Link to post Share on other sites
