that is very admirable. being in a relationship with a someone with mental health issues can be very challenging, but we also need supporters in our life to get through it. I think the decision should be up to her. are you really making her worse? or is this just your perception based on yur depressed thought process? does she have issues of her own that prevent her from making a healthy decision in this matter? these are just a few things to think about. take care.

Kent, I agree with Kaliope. I guess it all depends... does your girlfriend know about your depression? If so, is she supportive at all? I definitely think that if she's willing to be there for you, she's patient, and a GOOD supporter of you, then you shouldn't break up with her. But if she's not very understanding and impatient, then it might be a good idea to break up with her, because such negative influences would only hold you back.

Thanks you two. She's supportive of mine, but I'm afraid I'm making her worse just because of my family situations and such

I think it is worth a heart to heart conversation with her. You should mutually come to a decision on if you should stay together, is there a point you reach at which time you end the relationship or have another conversation.

[B] Hello there CuriossKent. Well, you obviously feel enough for her to worry about your future with her. Have you sat down and asked point blank?Maybe you'll come to the right answer between yourselves. I wish you well my friend. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX[/B

If she knows about your depression and what not, then that's her choice to stay because she cares about you. But I like what the others said, have an honest conversation with her. Express your concerns, see what the two of you decided together.
