Going through a rough spot. With his depression and mine. I don't know how to handle anything anymore. Lately sometimes it feels like I'm just looking at a stranger. I don't want to feel this way. I try so hard to be ok and support him through what he needs. I don't know how to help us recover from anything.

It's so hard when both of you are dealing with challenges at the same time, and unable to support each other (thought not for a lack of willingness). Feel free to reach out to me and leave a chat message if you'd like a listener.

I’ve gone through this with my boyfriend. You have to disconnect from him a bit and focus on yourself through this and what is making you feel depressed. If you focus on yourself first you will ultimately be a better support for him. You can’t take on what he has going on even though I know how hard it can be to separate it
