Hey everyone, I'm new here and just really wanted to let out some of my emotions. So lately I've been feeling really afraid of losing my boyfriend due to this growing depression. The ironic thing is that I'm becoming depressed because I feel like he just doesn't understand me. This happened when I was a teenager also and I felt alone, but my solution (not the greatest idea) was to just pretend I was someone else. We have very different opinions of the world and life and I do realize I can't blame him for any of that but lately I've been feeling like everything is my fault and if I just start pretending like I used to that we would be better off. He is very strong willed, which is one thing I love about him, but that strong will is impossible to bear when all you want is to be heard and told it's gonna be ok. Anyway sorry for the long post just wanted to talk to someone about this.
