I hate when you are dating someone and your anxiety and depression just tells you to push them away. but you try to talk to the person and they don't understand what's going on with you. it's very frustrating šŸ˜‘ šŸ˜’ šŸ˜•

      Yeah Iā€™ve had a lot of my boyfriends do this, either they donā€™t know how to help or they donā€™t care enough to try. It took me awhile to learn that I need to not rely on someone else

      I ghosted my current partner before we got together. It's a hard feeling but knowing that they want to stay helps so I tried to remember that I was the one pushing them away instead of them running

      The best relationship I have is with my second husband. We both have anxiety and depression as well as being Neurodivergent. Not that I'm saying you can't make it work with someone else. However, I've NEVER felt more seen or heard. It's easy to help each other out when we aren't okay. People who have never dealt with mental illness or even physical illness can't truly get it. It's unfathomable to them.

      I can relate to this... sometimes at work my depression hits. And my mind races and it turns into uncontrollable crying for no reason. I calm down.. I cry again.. I calm down.. cycle repeats. This doesn't happen often but when it does play out this way, I feel crazy

      I know what you mean Iā€™ve been with someone for over a year and I feel like he doesnā€™t understand me like itā€™s a big joke to him Iā€™m autistic as well as suffer from BPD and bipolar and I feel like he thinks Iā€™m making this all up like itā€™s all in my head because he doesnā€™t see it but the thing about autism we mask a lot of times when he calls me Iā€™m in bed itā€™s because my depression gets so bad I just canā€™t deal with it and I get suicidal at times and I just canā€™t get out of bed he just thinks Iā€™m lazy being a princess and I just need to lay in bed and thatā€™s it really upsets me and my own dad is the same way like thereā€™s nothing wrong with me Iā€™m just being lazy makes me really upset that people just assume thereā€™s nothing wrong with you like youā€™re crazy itā€™s all in your head a lot of people donā€™t take mental illness seriously itā€™s really sad
