 Hey y’all 
My long distance relationship boyfriend suffers from depression for a long time now. I’ve only known about it for 6 months now. I’ve done alot of research on depression and anxiety and I’ve learned to just be supportive and reasure them just how amazing they are and how much i love him. My only problem is that i don’t really know how to handle certain situations. Normally he talked to me about his problems and i would just listen and give advice if he seeks it, but this time it’s abit different. He says he doesn’t want to talk because talking isn’t helping him at all, he’s not taking his medication or does his meditation and when i asked him why he said he doesn’t know but he will be okay. A while ago i suggested he seeks professional help but he says he tried it in the past and it didn’t help him at all to go to therapy and he thinks this is just a waist of money and time. He once said i shouldn’t give him space but now he doesn’t pick up my calls, he texts me back on some texts but not all of them. I really don’t know what i should do. I don’t want to push him further away from me but i don’t know if he wants me to keep texting or giving him space. When i ask him he gets angry and lashes out because he doesn’t know what he wants and i should know what to do. I’m just really heartbroken by the pain he has to go through and i don’t know if i’m doing the right things or not. I’m really frustrated and exhausted i just want to help him.. If we would be together i would just take him into my arms but as it is a LDR it makes it so much harder to help him. I hope someone is/went through the same problem as me and can give me some advice.

Thank y’all :)
