Just that really. We've been together nearly 2 yrs & got together after i had divorced & he had just separated from his wife. It was brilliant in the beginning. But over the last 8 months he has become more & more depressed (he had depression before i met him, but had been treated & was in a good place). He is often thoughtless & seemingly uncaring, sometimes verbally aggressive. He says he will call then doesn't, when i do see him all he wants to do is watch tv or sleep. He is constantly miserable & it's so draining. We don't live together, got no dc together: at what point do i give up?? I don't want to because when he's not on a downer he is lovely. But I'm spending so much time fretting & worrying about him i need to take care of my own MH! I'm not heartless, but at what point do i throw in the towel?
