How depression takes its bitter roots in a relationship

Most people believe that when they find the one true love, nothing can darken their happiness and they will live happily ever after. Although it sounds wonderful in fairy tales, unfortunately in life things are rarely that way.

Happiness, contrary to perception, is a temporary feeling and the reasons for its lack can be countless, even if you are in a relationship with a wonderful person and your relationship is cloudless. Sometimes depression can strike you unexpectedly and it doesn’t necessarily have to be in your relationship, but it will definitely affect your relationship.

When you get depressed for any reason, whether it’s because of your relationship, your work, difficulties, problems, it can manifest itself in certain types of behavior that you demonstrate in your relationship.

The signs in your behavior that give away that you are depressed

You have no desire for intimacy

If you have stopped wanting to have sex with your partner and have no desire to have sex, you may be depressed. If there is no apparent reason, a problem in your relationship, conflicts and misunderstandings that push you away, then the reason may be emotional. It doesn’t necessarily have to do with your relationship, but it can push you toward an intimate distance.

You explode easily

If you have started to get angry with your partner for trifles, get angry easily over stupid things, can’t hold back your irritability and dislike for his bad habits, for example, your behavior may be provoked by depression. When you are very depressed, everything irritates you and in most cases you take out your anger on your partner.

You feel insecure

If you feel unapproved, insecure, doubt your partner’s love, have a constant need for him to take care of you and give you compliments, you may be suffering from depression. In order to ease your difficult emotional state, you may feel the need for your partner to constantly prove your love. Depressed people often feel insecure about themselves and their partner’s love for no real apparent reason. They simply find an occasion in every situation to interpret things as if they are being deliberately ignored by their partner.

You are having doubts about your relationship

Depressed people very often have a distorted view of things and lose their ability to adequately analyze situations. This makes them constantly doubt everything, especially themselves. They also doubt their partner – whether he loves them enough, whether he approves of them, whether he is cheating on them. These doubts at some point begin to take over every corner of the relationship and undermine it. Your partner may tire of your constant doubts and need to be cared for and to have your feelings and opinions validated.

If you do not take timely measures, the state of depression can worsen, which will not only make you feel worse and worse, but will also affect every area of your life and your relationships with the people in it.
