This is the forum to discuss your relationships, which includes all family members and how they are impacted by depression.

Relationship Forum Rules

This is the room to discuss your relationships and how they are impacted by depression. This is not a forum about graphic sexual dysfunction or graphic debate about women's or men's sexuality.
We will explore how relationships are either strengthened or weakened by the symptoms of depression and anxiety. Lets talk about the best ways to deal with your significant other while still coping with and overcoming your illness.
DF does not adhere to discriptive, triggering posts and they will be edited or deleted.

Depression can also be precipitated or intensified by a broken or abusive relationship. We will delve into the many issues and concerns presented by these situations.

This is also the room where significant others can vent their feelings of frustration and gain some knowledge and insight into the depressive state of mind.

Please remember that we all fight depression. Also remember that we have members of all ages here, so tread softly. Tread softly also because matters of the heart can light a fire faster than nearly any other subject.

Another reminder that most times when someone posts a topic here they are looking for support. The debate as to the strengths and weaknesses of the human species in regards to gender or sex will only distract and detract from that support

We know that laying down rules can seem rather abrasive, please understand that these rules are meant to keep things on track towards a constructive end.

If you have a number of threads already started try to use your existing thread first. Too many threads lead to confusion. Relationship problems deserve lots of attention, so I don't want anyone to get lost in the crowd.

Some Rules for posting. Please read the forum rules.We will state also that we will not ask permission to edit your posts. If we see offensive language (defined by FA) it will be edited. If we see an offensive post it will be deleted. If we see posts that are meant to provoke a fight it will be deleted. The rest is written in the rules of the forum.

Just remember that we all fight depression. Also remember that we have members of all ages here, so tread softly. Tread softly also because matters of the heart can light a fire faster than nearly any other subject.

Just a reminder that most times when someone posts a topic here they are looking for support. The debate as to the strengths and weaknesses of the human species in regards to gender or sex will only distract and detract from that support.

We have noticed that some threads are started by a member (usually a newcomer), other members post sympathy, empathy, and concern, then the member who started that thread never responds. After a while this causes concern on the part of other members. If you start a thread, please respond to those who post in your thread.
Additional rules will be posted here if need be. Thanks for reading.
