Keeping a relationship where one or more members has a mood or emotional disorder is difficult. Our goals seem to be the same. We both want a peaceful and moreover stress-free working relationship. Despite how much effort I put in, somehow, I feel like every other time we interact, my expectations lower (in fear of disappointment, discouragement, abandonment or other). Should I exclude this person from my life? Are there other ways to cope with this type of relationship?
