she needs the sort of help you're not qualified for. walk away. if she comes back when she's better, then good, but otherwise, don't allow yourself to be dragged down as well.

Depression can be bio-chemical or situational .

She should be checked by a doctor and she needs to examine her situation. Some people are depressed because they feel trapped in relationships that are not working for them.

Take a 30 day break and visit after a month . . . if she is happy, then maybe it was caused by the situation.

depression can destroy everything in your life and all the things you once enjoyed & were important to you, you lose enthusiasm for. this is probably why she feels numb and says she doesn't feel anything for you anymore. it can also lead to feelings of confusion, helplessness and suicide. a severely depressed person can be very irrational. i can't stress how important it is, for your girlfriend to see a doctor as soon as possible. the right medication and therapy can help her tremendously. what your girlfriend is feeling, may not even be depression. it may be hormonal and so she really needs to see her physican, so a professional can properly assess her situation.

abandonment is the last thing she needs right now. if you still love her, than what she needs is your support. i'm sure the situation has been very hurtful and frustrating for you as well, but hang in there and more importantly - find out exactly what is causing your girlfriends decline. if she's adamant that she doesn't want the relationship anymore, than it's best you move on with your life. good luck!

I remember feeling that way. Years ago before I got diagnosed with depression and started taking medicine. Now I am happy, been happy for years. I would get her some help. If you love her help her and then see how she feels about you. My best guess is that she is overanalyzing everything in her life.

I've been depressed for a very long time. When my husband and me fight I yell and say the most horrible things to him. I tell him I hate him and I wish he would die. I get into these horrible rages when I get mad and I just can't control it. He's stayed with me all these years (7) and I'm so glad he does. I don't know how he can put up with me. I am finally seeing a psychiatrist to deal with my depression, anxiety and ocd and hopefully be a better wife to him. If he left me, even when I tell him I want him to go away, I would be devestated. I only mean it at that moment. It's not how I really feel.
