Now the depression appears to be better should we talk about our relationship??!

Now the depression appears to be better should we talk about our relationship??

I am getting close to my ex again, having split 4 mths ago.

She was honest from the start, telling me she had depression as a teenager along with anorexia/bulimia. She also told me early on that she suffers from chronic fatigue syndrome which gets her down, makes her unwell, tired etc

We broke up 4 mths ago as she said her feelings had changed. This coincided with her being down. Initially, she went to her dr who said she was depressed, she then said to me she wasn't, but was unhappy with the relationship & ended things.

We are back in touch now & are clearly very close still & there is something there. We have met twice in the last 2 wks & chatted generally but not about the relationship.

She mentioned to me that her dr has said she doesn't need to take prozac anymore which she was put on at the time things went wrong with us.

Now she is better should I raise us & also talk about her dealing with the depression??

What should I do? I do love her.

The two of you need to have a VERY serious discussion about her, you, and the relationship. If you are going to get back together, then YOU need some assurances that just because she may get down again, does NOT mean that the relationship has to end or be put on hold again! It is important that you understand depression and that you have a system in place to help you deal with her ups and downs! Just because she gets down in the dumps, does not mean that she get to walk in and out of your life at will. It may seem that that is easier than either of you dealing with her depression; however that is NOT healthy for either of you !!

Good luck!!
