> Hi All,

> I'm wondering how it's possible that so many depressed people manage to have romantic relationships at all. One of the things that I've *felt* like my recent diagnosis has explained is the fact that I simply can't trust anyone enough to get involved. I mean *at all.* It also takes me a while to make friends--but the few friends I do have are very close.

> I guess I'm just curious about how "wierd" I am. In some ways I think I've handled my issues quite well in the last 20 (of my 30) years. But my, um, "love" life is a glaring exception. Does this have any resonance for anyone else? And for those who are in relationships (of any stripe), do you find that the relationship helps with the depression? It's always seemed to me like too much of a risk, but maybe I'm mistaken. (Wouldn't be the first time!!)

You aint weird I'm weirder than the average. Two plutontic friends and a pussycat. So many relationships[not that slapper's my middle name]
Had relationship for five years; always magical in the beggining, feel alive then boredom comes.
Trust no-one but try to keep an open mind then the door of love will stay ajar.I've yet to fall deep.
A wise-ity for the youth, although I'm a springing chicken, beware of the living together it doesn't work well for depressives. One day it's sugar in their tea the next it's salt.
Jump aboard the love train .
