Is it dangerous to be involved in a relationship with someone who suffers from depression
My ex gf suffers from depression and It's hard to talk to her sometimes. During our relationship she was constantly sad about something and I was always there to cheer her up. Now that we are broken up I am concerned that she will become even more depressed. I care for her, but I can't help but feeling that she is bringing me down.
Answer:is she on any medication? if not i would deffinatly reccomend you tell her to look into it. i have been on antidepressents since i was 16 now 21. and me and my boyfriend have a great relationship. ofcourse i still get sad and depressed but the medicine does help greatly.
yeah she was sorta bringing you down. Its not dangerous its just hard, and there must real love involved. All i can say if you really love her and think you can take it, then go for it, because she needs somebody... try and talk her into counseling or therapy
No It's not dangerous... if she's taking her meds right than she shouldn't been depressed.... Or maybe she needs to call her dr and ask question if the meds aren't working then she and dr. needs to change her meds. I have depression and I'm taking Cymbalta and It's working for me alot better than other meds out there. But you have to take them faithfully every day! Good Luck!
Plus she needs to go to Counseling...
Probably not dangerous but maybe a bumpy ride for you. If she means a lot to you, be there for her either as a b/f or a friend. Otherwise, as cold as this sounds, it might be best if you cut your losses. Good luck. You are a good person to be concerned about her.
I dated someone who was Bipolar. He was heavily medicated so it was like dealing with multiple personalities. When I realized that the relationship was making us both suffer I was scared to break it off b/c of his suicidal threats. I felt like I would be responsible for anything that happened to him. Eventually, we talked when he was in a calmer state and decided it was best that we went our separate ways.
Dating someone with a mental disturbance is very trying. Look for warning signs in the beginning. Like manic behavior or thoughts of suicide.
