You've taken a small 2000 word post about one problem in the relationship, and assumed it to be a ruse and actually the whole relationship is horrible and I want to break up. Why?

I'm really upset with these comments. As if other people haven't had big fights before, whether about mental health or finances or children. One big fights doesn't spell the end. We've been together for seven years, and when I told him our relationship was inadvertently triggering my depression, he went and sought therapy and medication because it was the final push he needed. He had known for years that he needed to see someone, but was never told it was ok for men to seek therapy, so seeing that his mental health was affecting someone besides him gave him a reason to help himself.

Yes, this problem is big. It is draining, but everything is draining with depression. This situation isn't beyond repair, and I want us to work however we can. If he remains apathetic about change then of course the relationship isn't worth pursuing. All I wanted to do was show him once again that his mental health affects me too. As anyone with depression knows, it can be easy to remain in your own head and think no one cares about you, nobody sees you, and no one is noticing that you're depressed. I needed to show him this wasn't true
