I'm no stranger to depression or self hatred; but this is the first time I've had to be on the other end of someone I love punishing themselves for things that she shouldn't be.

My gf gets I'm these "fits" that she thinks she is a bad mother. She has said on multiple occasions that she is a bad partner that does nothing for me and provides no worth to the relationship. Both of those statements are not the least bit true.

It's hard to communicate when I say, "you make me happy, you are amazing." And she responds with, "....it's hard to accept that, I don't see what you see in me."

I try softly talking to her as well as a more firm possibly stern approach to get her to think and maybe start to accept these things.

Kind of just need some guidance on how to help.
