My DP never opens up.
Recently his sex drive has gone down and I've noticed it. He has also been moodier. After a while I kept asking why. He always said he didn't know. So I kept asking.
The other night he broke down. He actually cried (something I rarely see.) He said he doesn't feel himself. He said he doesn't feel he has as much testosterone (not sure if spelt right). That he has no reason to be unhappy but that sometimes he just feels depressed. He doesn't want to go to the doctors and I don't want to push this. Instead I'd like to help him.
This is very new to me and I don't quite know what to do. Does anyone have any experience?
It has already brought us closer together which is amazing but at the same time I feel helpless.
He has seemed fine since and I can relate to this as sometimes I feel depressed or moody but then once I've talked about it I feel fine and it's like I never felt that way to begin with.
Maybe talking to me has helped and that's what I have to keep doing.
I know there probably isn't much advice to give but it helps to voice it as I won't discuss this with anyone else. This is personal to him and a huge thing to admit.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
