I have been treated for depression for 2 months now but i have had it for much longer...i have had a huge relapse and i am all sorts of messed up at the moment but the one thing thats worrying me the most is my boyfriend...

I love him so much, but he makes me upset and gets me down a lot and he doesnt even realise it...ive spoke to him about it and he doesnt realise he is doing it. He makes snide and snarky comments that make me want to crawl into a hole and be forgotten and i dont know what to do...

I've moved your post to relationship support. I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend! I hope you are to get some answers here.

Hey there, hopefully you are doing well. There's a few things I would like to point out;

I have been treated for depression for 2 months now but i have had it for much longer...(This means you should only surround yourself with positive, caring, empathetic and uplifting people throughout this process because its going to help you deal with depression a lot better) i have had a huge relapse and i am all sorts of messed up at the moment but the one thing thats worrying me the most is my boyfriend...

I love him so much, but he makes me upset and gets me down a lot and he doesnt even realise it...ive spoke to him about it and he doesnt realise he is doing it. (I do think he realizes it in a way, but tends to minimize the effects of his words on you. I feel he lacks empathy and understanding for how you feel, and its not willing to take responsability for his actions) He makes snide and snarky comments that make me want to crawl into a hole and be forgotten and i dont know what to do...(People like him will only hurt you in the long run, he is not communicating and behaving like an adult. His snine and snarky comments are meant to hurt and push you away because he simply lacks maturity. I understand you love him, but if you stay with him then your depression will only get worst and then you won't be happy)

I do feel you wont find love or happiness with him. The only thing that will occur is him hurting you.
