I have been sober for one year and my boyfriend, who I live with is not an alcoholic but has mental health issues. Based off of the principals of this support group I hope this post is okay. I practice a strong program and have made incredible strides in my sobriety and mental health but my boyfriend has really been going through it recently and it brings me down!!! He wants to get better , he’s in therapy and have tried different prescribed anti-depressants/anti-anxiety all which have made him feel worse.he doesn’t put his bad mood or energy on me but as a codependent I feel the negative energy heavy. After working long hours with children and dealing with my own struggles, coming home to someone who is depressed makes me angry and want to pull away from him. I remember when I was going through it and everyone I loved pulled away from me and I don’t want to do that. I love him and know he’s just struggling right now but there’s also nothing I can do but stand by his side. However I am starting to get resentful and impatient and that makes me feel so guilty. I don’t know what to do. When he’s normal he’s the best person ever but when he has his down periods it’s like he’s not even there, we are disconnected, and like I lost my best friend. I guess I just needed to rant and if anyone has gone through something Similar or had advice please let me know
