My friend has a boyfriend who has major depression and its gotten really bad. I am trying to get her to just leave him as she can do way better than him. How do I get her to move on?
>boyfriend has major depression
>"how do I get her to leave him?"
What kind of shit is this? You're literally trying to make her dump her boyfriend because you don't want her to deal with him being depressed. That's fucked up. If she loves him and is willing to help him through it then you should do what you can to support that. If he's already very depressed and you get her to leave him, you're pretty much just putting a gun in the guy's mouth.
Depression is an illness, it's not just something you can blow off. Try and help the poor guy, don't make him more depressed.
Let me guess, so you could have at some scrumptious, plump and ripe meat pie?
Just don't. Don't even consider humoring that thought.
Let them live their lives as they amplify each other's comfort. If you're this thirsty, save up enough for a hooker or some premium quality porn if you're cheap.
i feel like this is bait but if not eat a dick
its literally none of your business she may love him despite his illness and your asking how to break them

fuck your entire existance, seriously.

This is not OP but someone that has dealt with someone who has had severe depression and bi polar. I tried for 4 years. Everyone I was close to tried to push me to get out of it because I ended up completely drained, changed, and emotionally/psychologically abused.
If the person they are with are WILLING to make changes. To go to therapy... then it is worth it to stay. If they aren't then save that person from a life of pain and rejection from the image of someone they loved more than any words could explain.
I haven't dated since. She was my everything, and in turn, I cant put myself in a position like that again. She is now dating someone else and I'm happy for her. We still talk and she doesn't even know why this new guy wants to leave and as much as someone tries to explain it, it doesn't even matter.
It makes me sad for the person in OP post and others suffering in the same situation.
Your concern is admirable, but for your own sake don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong.
>>18406613
oh OP you slimy fuck :))
>>18406613
Kill him, duh.
>>18406613
Why are you such a bitch?
Your friend obviously loves him.
and he obviously needs her.
leave them alone you cunt.
hehe
>>18406694
Depression is an illness, yeah his illness. Why the fuck is it on anybody else to help when you don't wanna help yourself
>>18408873
>illness
>literally out of their control
>"he doesn't want to help himself"
Tfw anon shows their unrelenting autism
>>18408880
Depression doesn't exist, like ADD. If the guy doesn't want to help himself, he deserves what happens.
>>18408910
I have adhd and depression retard
>>18408924
Who said you did, a doctor? Did you feel "depressed" before? Were you diagnosed with adhd as a kid?
>>18408956
Yes, yes, and no. Diagnosed as an adult for both. Depression isn't "oh I feel kinda sad today". Its a fucking black void. It seems to make everything... Well washed out. Makes things you used to love and people you enjoyed seem pointless and dull. Its not just sadness it could be any number of emotions, but it ends the same: a lack of interest in general life.
Dont try to break other people's relationships up, that's kinda rude.
>>18408990
I would personally want to break up with someone who had a lack of interest in general life, regardless of the cause.
>>18408990
I smell bs. Depression does not exist. Get your head out of your ass.
>>18409012
I smell a retard. Apparently mental illness doesn't exist in your amazing little world.
For someone who doesn't believe in serious mental disease you sure sound like an open and shut case of autism.

>>18409055
What does God have to do with you being an autistic little shit?
>>18409025
Autism doesn't exist. It's just mental retardation.
>>18409343
>Mental illnesses don't exist
>I don't have a mental illness, just another mental illness
Good job cornering yourself retard.
>>18409012
Grow out of your teen ages and out of your parent's financial support before you spew bullshit.
>>18409514
Take care of myself, work two jobs to keep a roof over my head in a good neighborhood. Maybe because I didn't let government doctors convince me I have a mental illness.
>>18409550
Let me guess, you are an anti vaxxer and frequent /pol/ don't you?
>>18408880
Sorry that you're such a weak cunt that you need help and absolutely can't do any effort on your own.
>>18408990
Sounds like you're a weak bitch, that's what it sounds like.
>>18408873
This.
People who feel the need to constantly be a victim (WAAH MUH DEPRESSION) and don't make a serious effort to self improve do not make good partners.
The only reason anybody will tell OP differently is because they themselves are, or are close with someone who is a depressedfag, and don't want to admit this simple truth.

>This is not OP but someone that has dealt with someone who has had severe depression and bi polar. I tried for 4 years.
I know this feel so well. I dated a chick for 2 years and her depression totally fucked with me. gained weight, stressed as fuck about her constant suicidal thoughts, stressed because she became addicted to marijuana because it made her happy, stressed because every week or two she'd have a breakdown. and she never really tried to go to a therapist or counselor to talk it over.
that's your warning sign you can only do so much supporting a person. they have to support themselves or be willing to try.

*autistic screeching*
> I am trying to get her to just leave him as she can do way better than him. How do I get her to move on?
how about you just leave them alone and let your friends do their own thing for once? why the fuck is their relationship any of your business?
>>18406613
People like you have no right to tell someone how to live. I'm being an ass by having this misdirected rage out on you and I'm sorry but a peice of shit like you trying to steal someone else is garbage. She's your friend not anything more and you insinuating that she deserves better (assuming this better one is you) makes you look like you're a selfish motherfucker that preys on a ladies weakness. You may get her but you'll only break her.
>>18410177
Not the man you replied to, but
>anybody who doesn't agree that I'm a special snowflake is autistic, even if they are objectively more successful than me
You likely deserve every bit of sadness that you feel.
>>18410186
did you just assume OP's gender?!?!?!
>>18410146
Yeah and I'm here to give the cold hard truth. Nobody gives a flying fuck if you're sad in this world. NO. BODY. so your best bet is to pick your sorry ass up and start making your own effort. If you expect me to do all the work and stay with you outta pity then you're dead weight to me, straight up.
>>18410207
right back at ya buddy
>>18410236
I've dealt with somebody who thinks like this irl and she just abuses cocaine and any other drug she can find. She's also going to die alone
>>18410236
>common signs of autism:
>lack of empathy
>>18407217
I can relate. Dated someone with severe depression and possibly bipolar disorder who was unmedicated/untreated and not willing to get help. Relationships like that are incredibly draining, especially when the person is manipulative and controlling. I knew I should break up with him yet each time I tried to, he manipulated and guilt tripped me into staying with him. Sometimes you need someone else to tell you what you should do in order to have the strength or awareness to go through with it.
>>18408990
I was severely depressed as a kid and teen. It's possible to get out of it by yourself.
