After seeing a counsellor consultant on Monday and her diagnosing me with manic depression I have been feeling absolutely terrible.
I told my partner what the counsellor consultant had said and, knowing that he had suffered with depression in the past, was hoping he could be supportive of me. Last night he said he thinks he can only help me as a friend. He feels like i am dragging him down with me. He is my world and has been for the last 10 months. I feel totally selfish for asking him to be there for me but i have a terrible relationship with my parents and brother and have no one else to turn to on a constant basis. He said he wants to help me through it. All i want is him to pick me up and run away with me because i can't cope anymore. Even my faith is being put to the test.
