I was wondering, what are some things you do in your relationship when your depression gets really bad? How do you try to combat what is going on?

@Jbyrnes95 When I am in a depressive episode, I vent to my partner and tell him what's going on with me. The validation and empathy he gives helps a lot. I also use him as an accountabilty partner. We make plans to cook and exercise. The fact that we do those things together helps me get out of my head and do the things I know will help.
