Yes, I often thought my own struggles would keep me from finding or keeping a mate and that hasn't been the case. I hope your next person is able to love you through it.
Thank you for this. As someone who has struggled to love a sibling through their depression out of not understanding the experience, only years later to find myself in postpartum depression and feel like a burden to my husband and those around me. This is so necessary 🤎
You’ve described so much that resonates with me and my experience—as a depressed person and as a friend to depressed people (bc we all have different experiences). Thank you for this. 🫶🏾
Thank you. We’ve been going through this with our teen daughter, and I also navigated it my entire childhood with a depressed parent. Your writing gave me a couple of lightbulb moments. ❤️
