Your depression doesn't define you, you are much more than depression and all you have to offer as a person to a worthy partner will surely outweigh your diagnosis.
You're an extremely intelligent and ambitious young lady. Don't let depression lie to you and allow it to dictate your choices by placing limitations on you within a relationship.
That's the one area where our MI has very little say, because the people who really love us, will simply love us.
The right man will love you the way you deserve, depression and all. He will admire you for accomplishing all you have despite battling such a terrible disorder.
Once upon a time after leaving my (abusive, ambitionless, perpetually jobless) ex, I also believed nobody would want me, that nobody else would want to put up with me and my crazy. Turns out I was super wrong, my current bf of nearly 5 yrs loves me Bipolar, Borderline PD, OCD and all. And if I'm worthy of such pure acceptance, then dammit!
SO ARE YOU!!!
Ps. Having a bf who's on the same wavelength as me, is such a VAST difference, sooo much more fullfilling. Wayyy better than trying to be happy with a guy with whom I'm "unequally yoked". I tell you its a damn beautiful thing to have a bf who's ambitions are in line with mine, who strives toward having a better life, who's work ethic matches my own. It feels good to actually be able to admire my bf. Farrr cry from slowly resenting someone who sits on his bum and trying to convince myself I'm being shallow.
