Someone please explain depression for me? I am so lost. How do you love or care for someone who is depressed all the time. Just put your feelings, needs and wants aside?? Because they are depressed.

Encourage them to seek counselling and help from a doctor. Depression can be managed with medication, diet, exercise and counselling.

You don't have to put those things aside. Just provide support and love. It's very difficult but you have to stay positive and still remember to take care of yourself.

Don't put yourself last. But also be there if they need/want to talk and support them. It's hard on both sides. Don't expect them to be rational about communication or expect them to tell you what is wrong 24/7. At the same time, don't let them take it out on you. Don't be afraid to speak up if they are being an ass "hey I know you are feeling awful right now, but you can't take it out on other people."

depression is a bitch but medication and counseling can really work. most times ppl can't just pull themselves out of it.
but I also think u talked about addiction idk if that's the same person but ppl self medicate which can make things worse

Depression is definitely a hard fight. Some people ignore their depression and refuse to get treatment however if you can be there for them great but if you find yourself losing more and more of yourself trying to help it’s best to leave them be.
