My boyfriend and I broke up recently. The thing is, he's my best friend in the whole world and pretty much the only person I can talk to. So when I'm really depressed, if I can't talk to him I can't talk to anyone. So we still talk, and I know he still cares about me. But I know my depression gets him down--it's probably part of the reason he broke up with me. I have other friends who care, but I'm just no good at talking to them about anything seriouis. I want to be friends with him--I can't live without him--but I don't want to keep making him suffer like this. I guess that's why I'm here. I need to build new relationships with people that I can talk to about my depression, so all the burden isn't just on my best friend.
