I'm so sorry you're feeling this way <3 long story short I've had depression since I was about 13, been on tablets had therapy the lot and nothing helped. One year I got a diary for Christmas and started writing in it every day, and when I felt down I would read back on what I've been doing and what I did on the days I remember feeling happy, pretty quick I noticed a pattern. I quit drinking all together, I stopped listening to music that made me sad, films that made me sad, I stopped eating junk food and I started writing a list of things to do every day like cleaning etc. it seems really tripe but it feels so good to cross things off your list that once you start you build up slowly to doing more things. At first you can even help feel better by really breaking it down, like put brush hair have breakfast check Facebook, anything that you can cross off. Also I can't recommend enough talking to your partner, if he keeps up saying these things you will get worse, and if he loves you he will understand and back off. Maybe he will have some suggestions of things you've stopped/started doing that has triggered this, I know sometimes my husband notices things about me before I do. You are so very strong to have battled this before, you can do this again and you will do this again, and come out even stronger for it. I can promise you now if you are trying even a little bit then you ARE good enough, so many use it as an excuse to stop trying altogether. Good luck and remember anything is better than nothing no matter how small.
Depression again?(sorry it's somewhat long)
I struggled with depression many years, I was put on medication, about last year I just stopped taking them(I know you're not suppose to) but I have always been fine since absolutely nothing like I use to be. Lately for a few weeks I just don't feel happy. I'm having a lot of intimatsy issues with my SO, I found out I'm on the verge of losing my job, and just other things. I feel so belittled by everyone, and like I'm not enough. Even with my SO, lately he's just implying I don't do much(for work bc it's only 3 &1/2 days)and lately I haven't even felt like doing house work.(he's said stuff about that to). I just don't have the motivation because I feel like what's the point, anything I try and do isn't good enough anyways. I tried cleaning the house today to make him happy when he gets home, but it's hard for me to even keep going, I've got some things done, but I'm just so mentally drained and when I had depression I slept all the time. And that's how I feel now, I have no motivation, I'm upset and feel extremely tired that I just want to sleep the rest of the day. All I really feel like doing is sleeping, and drinking. I noticed that to, I've been taking up smoking again, and I've been drinking more than usual. I just hate being like this, but I feel I have no one that gets it. And the people I should go to about this, I've always had a really hard time talking about things. Especially this. I just don't know what to do anymore😪
