He needs help! Am I doing the right thing?
A quick same personal story when I was younger, I suffered from Depression and that was the worst era of my life. I hated the loneliness and numbness I suffered during that time. Soon I got a dog that kinda force me to get up in morning and come home from school to take care of him while in return he took away all the loneliness and anxiety. As well my former old friend(now my best friend) had gotten in contact with me and help me throughout this rough time. Ultimately my dog and my best friend was rock & help kick depression out of my life.
Now my boyfriend, I been together with for over three months. Before I had helped people with depression before I got it, he suffer the same symptoms as them and in a while I can feel the heavy depressing aura that I former used to deal with.
I have came to the conclusion that tomorrow I will tell his mother about this depression he has because he's too afraid to talk to her. He's so nervous that she won't understand or maybe yell at him about it but more than anything I think she will understand. Since she's a school teacher, she had dealt with different students before and for sure she will help her son.
I have promised myself after my depression faded away I would help anyone in the dark since I never got the help like I wish for but to afraid. Now I'm speaking up for him tomorrow even though he's to scared that she will be angry for not telling her anything.
(P.S. He's said he was okay with me tell his mother, he just really nervous about her reaction. I think she will be understanding like she always have since I knew her.)
My mother told me that I was doing the right thing but I wonder if I really am before it could be too late?
