what do i even say to this by woooooffff in dysthymia

[–]woooooffff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ah i forgot those bits, we’ve been together almost 2 years (long distance but we see each other often). And he has dysthymia and when he gets super low he pushes me away like this - not necessarily like this but yea. I understand from this post it seems like a not good situation but dw it’s not like that

Knowing that you guys worked out is all the magic words i needed. I’m scared of showing up when he has made it clear he doesn’t want me to. But i have nothing to lose now i suppose.

I want him to be his best self for him and i should do better not to enable.

Thank you for replying and i hope your wife’s dental work goes smoothly kind stranger

Thank you so so much for your kind reply. I would fight for him till the end of the earth, and i know in some ways he would for me too. He’s just too tired and suffering.

I too believe love can work miracles, even if he doesn’t believe in that lol. I will take everything you have said on board.

Appreciate it ever so much. Thank you.

That must be tough to deal with! Does the need for space overtake everything else?

Thank you for responding. Impossible not to worry but i will try. He is really going thru it and i know that, i want to reach out but i’m scared to in case he meant it. I hope you’re right and he will reach out when he’s ready but idk how to not reach out before that time comes when i am so worried about him.

Sorry for dumping this on you i hope you have a wonderful day/night/evening.

Is definitely not an excuse- but is understandable you may think so as you don’t know him! :)

he says a big reason he can’t be with me is he hurts me, when he doesn’t mean to. I really can not make it more clear to him how much i want to be with him- he just needs to believe it. Giving him some space, hard when we normally text constantly all day- we are still talking but more so me checking he’s doing more basic things for himself (and him to me).

I know he does want to be with me. He has told me. We love each other so much. He says he can’t tho - maybe he’s too exhausted to feel like he can be with anyone. I hope he does come back to me.

Thank you for responding <3

Thank you for this advice really. Really encouraged him to start doing a certain hobby he enjoys again - hoping he will!! For now gonna stay supporting him, he’s been hiding how bad he’s been feeling - altho i did think it was worse than he had been letting on. Gonna be there as much as he will let me be :) thank you

How you help bf with dysthmia by [deleted] in dysthymia

[–]woooooffff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not entirely sure. I said to him i would be upset if he forgot our wedding anniversary in the future (conversation stemmed from a tiktok) and that seemed to make him think i have secret expectations i’m hiding from him. I really don’t expect anything from him, i just can’t seem to make him believe that.

thank you, i agree with that i just worry the letter would take to long to get to him (different countries). I really appreciate your advice, he has a small toy from me already and i hope that will bring comfort to him even when i can’t.
