Does having something to do help depression?
Posted , 4 users are following.
im in a relationship with a man who seems fine but says he has depression. The main thing causing it is likely to be losing his wife last year. He seems fine about this can talk about her with me no problem. I've never had any experience with depression before I've never had it and never known anyone with it. It's only this week he's hinted it may be worse than I thought. Admitting he has days where he can't face doing anything every few days. Yet says he's doing something most days. Most of time it's normal stuff housework taking dogs out watching tv reading. I'm wondering if it would help if he had something to do most days like going out or a course or something as he's always been ok on days we plan to meet.

from talking the other day it sounds like he will make effort to still meet sometimes if he's having bad day so could be case of both of us being understanding to the other at times. Another thing is how we will get on if he has bad day.

I have thought if he is ready for relationship a few times purely because some people wouldn't be ready by now. There is nothing at all indicating that he doesn't feel ready. He says he's ready he acts like he's ready. Ok I may end up getting hurt but you can get hurt in any relationship. Next month will show more of how things are likely to go with Valentine's day then what would be his wife's birthday. But at minute I'm just seeing how things go as I know if I dont I will forever wonder what would of happened.
