i love someone with treatment resistant depression. at least, that seems to be the most likely diagnosis.
we aren't in a relationship, but we are friends.
i don't have depression, but my borderline personality disorder comes with a hefty dose of it from time-to-time. with major depression, though, it seems like there is often a struggle with attachment in relationships.
does anyone here struggle with attachment issues?
how do you see the people in your life? your loved ones?
my bpd makes it hard to feel secure in relationships. i seek validation. he has an issue with attachment. it feels right now like loving him is futile, or trying to cultivate the relationship, to attend to it.
does anyone have any advice that might help?
