Q: Depression affecting my relationship
asked by: sae on June 22nd, 2008

I have very low self esteem, I just got over an eating disorder that i had for 3 years. I'm pushing my boyfriend farther and farther away because of my bad feelings towards everything. I havent been a good girlfriend to him over the 8 months we've been together, and I am extremely jealous of girls that he is friends with, and I dont know why. He is such a good person and would never cheat on me. He is my everything and I dont want to lose him, ever. He said he sees me like a girlfriend, and he wants to try and make things work. He says even if someday we do break up, we will stay friends in hopes of getting back together. He said he sees himself spending a long part of his life with me. How can I stop being jealous of girls that are only his friends, and how can i be a better girlfriend to him? I just want to make him the happiest I can make him.

why do you have bad feelings towards everything? is is b/c you've been hurt a lot in your life? and you just depressed which causes you to be negative?

i had to battle depression for many years, and i know how it feels to be negative and feel bad all the time. i am quiet when i depressed vs. snapping at everyone or being negative. sometimes you have to fake a smile, and think about what you say before you say it, and try not to be negative when you know your feeling bad. so you dont make anyone feel bad.
is seeing a therapist out of the question? if so you should talk to someone about how you feel.
