writes: My botfriend is now seeing a psychologist to help with his depression and anxiety. The things that the psychologist tells him to do in order to help his moods makes me upset. For example, the psychologist told him to take pictures of me down because he has too many and this causes him to miss me and feel upset and lonely. This made me upset and we got into an argument. How can I be supportive of him trying to get help when I feel upset about the solutions that are offered? I need advice!!! Reply to this Question Share |

Hey there anon..
You and your partner will argue more because you are both under a huge amount of stress.. I understand what you are going through though so you are not alone.
I think that this is the best time to sit down with your partner and ofer your sympathies to him aswell as the psychologists.. He will need help from both of you even if you do not agree with the psychologists advice, it is still needed for your partner...
The both of you need to be a bit more understanding with each other at this comforting time.. Depression is one heck of a nuisance and if treated properly can alter itself...
My advice to you would be to sit your boyfriend down and ask him if there is anything you can do for him to make him feel better, this will also make you feel a bit better as you are helping him with his problems...
Trust me, it works..
Help others, To help yourself..
