Anonymous asked: I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I've been down lately, for what seems to be no reason. I have a boyfriend who at first seemed to care very much about what happened to me, but for a while we just fought and made up. Now we barely talk and I just don't feel any connection anymore. I suppose you can say I am depressed. I cry at least 4 times a week, for no reason. I feel miserable and just so sad. And I don't know why. I really DON'T want to feel this way. It sucks so much. Talking to my boyfriend makes me nervous. He tried listening to me, but I suppose he's gotten tired of it. Our conversations seemed strained and they don't seem to go anywhere. I love him but I don't think that he loves me anymore.

And I just don't care about school anymore. I don't think it's solely due to my boyfriend. I've cried before and we've been okay. This doesn't make sense, I know. I just don't know what to do. I wish I could snap out of it. I've neglected my school work for the past 3 weeks. I have finals next week. I used to panic when my homework was due the following day, now I don't feel anything at all. I just don't care anymore. :(

And I've been a good student, A's and B's. If I don't do my work I know I'll fail for sure. I just don't have any energy.

Honey it sounds to me like maybe you just need to take a break from him. Tell him you need a break, study for your finals, and then afterwards if you feel that you still want to be in a relationship with him. Talk to him and find out how he feels about you, because it sounds like most of your depression is coming from the insecurities you’re feeling about him possibly not loving you anymore.

But my opinion is, that if you mostly argued before, it’s not a very good relationship to be in. You deserve someone better who will be there for you, listen, understand, and comfort you.
