Been really frustrated with my partner lately. She flip flops between moods for no apparent reason and always has the same answer: "I don't know." When I pester her about why she's feeling the way she is, she chalks it up to "being depressed".

I get depression. I get mood swings, having BPD and all. What I don't get is not listening to me when I tell her that her work stress is getting to her, and she doesn't listen. It's really frustrating to see her claim depression when she brings work stress home with her and shuts down for the weirdest reasons. Yeah honey, you may be depressed. But you sure as hell haven't done anything to remedy it and I'm running out of sympathy. I've got my own issues to take care of and I can't keep urging you to take care of yours.

Anyways.
