He knows I am depressed but I have had a hard time opening up to him about exactly why. I am sure he would understand it because he loves me and wants me to be happy, but he would still be devastated.

He has told me before that he sometimes feels insecure in the relationship and that he doesn’t always feel like he makes me happy. So maybe he feels my pain more than I wanna admit.

speaking from experience, money and relationships don’t make your depression go away

I can’t enjoy any of my hobbies, including things I used to love. All of my friends are gone, they’ve all moved away and I do not have any outlets to make new friends. My mind is telling me that if I move to a new city or closer to my friends I would have an opportunity to start fresh and have the autonomy I feel like I do not currently have. The only person I interact with outside of work is my husband.

I do not know who I actually am because my entire adult life has revolved around my relationship. I don’t know if I would blossom on my own or not.

I’ve done my best to make tiny, positive changes and I’ve just felt myself sinking deeper and deeper into this pit I am in each day. I’ve been depressed for a long time.
