I've been living with my roommate for 2 years now. She has depression, and I don't really understand everything, but I'm doing everything in my power to try. She says that the worst thing for someone with depression is to be misunderstood. I want to know her and how her mind works. What can I do to help her? She is in counseling. I've heard that meds and conseling is the only way she can truly start to change, but I feel helpless.
What can I do. Our relationship is beginning to fall apart. I want so desperately not to lose our friendship. She's broken inside. I cannot relate.
She has a social phobia, which caused her to drop out of college last semester. She has a fear of rejection, so she will not go find a job which she so desperately needs. Her depression is bringing me down. She used to be a cutter, and is currently struggling with a lot of self esteem problems.
Any suggestions? Anyone else in my boat? .... thanks.
