Question:
For anyone suffering from clinical depression...?
How has it affected your relationships? Do you find it difficult to communicate with the people in your life that you love the most, and find yourself cutting them out of your life? If so, why?? I'm finding myself doing this, and seem to have someone in my life doing it to me. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced anything similar
Answers:
One of the big red flag/signs of depression is pushing family and friends aside. It has destroyed a few relationships. It starts out you get angry or annoyed fast. So a comment that would bother you now suddenly does. Then something bothers you so much (even thought it's not very serious) that you avoid them. It is nearly impossible to be social when depressed. Intimate relationships if not already well formed are nearly doomed.
Force yourself to go out and have fun with the thought of "I will like this if I like it or not!" You'll eventually like it and be back to at least close to your old self.
