It took a while to finally get this post together, but here it is.
I've been feeling a bit worse than usual these days, so I figure it is time I should reach out to someone. Nobody in my life will believe I am depressed. This is probably because I hide it so well, with my sense of humour still being intact.

Anyway, the reason I'm posting as you can see, is that I feel my fiancee doesn't seem to give a darn about my depression. In fact, it makes her mad at me.
I have let her in and told her about the way I'm feeling before, but that doesnt seem to make a difference at all. Just so we are clear, I don't try to use depression as an excuse, and I don't even mention the word to her.

I try my best to do things to make her happy, and all I get is crapped on for it. She will get mad at me for doing things too slowly, or screwing something up, and then she acts as if I am doing it on purpose.

Like today, I was making her chicken parmesan, and I accidentally cooked one side a little bit burned when I was frying the breaded chicken. So as I expected, she chewed me out for it and said it was because I didn't care enough about anything other than myself. She has been under a lot of stress lately, but this kind of behaviour is really unnecessary. I don't treat her like that. We're a couple, we should be partners. Im tired of getting stomped on every time i make a mistake. She should be helping me heal, not hinder it.

To get to the point, I want to know what I can do to pull myself out of this. I want to be happy again so I can make my fiancee happy. I love her very much, and I want to believe we can get through this. I just dont know what to do or what to say to her. I feel like anything I do is hopeless, and I'm just going to fail. The Depression Screening survey says I am severely depressed, but I just dont know what to believe anymore.

Any tips you can give me for coping would be appreciated.
My best tip is find another fiance. This one doesn't sound good. Sorry.
