Can anyone help me with this. I have been in the depths of a depression for more than a year, which I'm finally pulling out of. This has been terribly hard on my partner. He has told me he is "at the wall" and has thought of ending our relationship. He's not sure if he can cope with another one and we both know there will be another one. Whether it would be as severe as this one, I don't know. I've been surfing the net to try to find some material on caregiver burnout which we could then try. Neither one of us wants to end this, but it can't go on like this either.
I don't know if this is the proper place to post this, but any suggestions for web sites I could go to would be greatly appreciated.
I'm waiting for some material to be mailed to me (I live in a rural community) on the subject, but I would like to access the web also. Please help, as I feel like I'm losing my best friend.
Sometimes I feel like I'm being double-whammied. Suffering from depression/anxiety and as a result, not being able to function in a relationship.
