> Show of hands here... how many have to deal with spouses, boyfriends, girlfriends, family members who are dealing with the knowledge that you are depressed or as bad as it sounds, you have a mental illness?

> How do you explain to them why Prozac is good for you and throwing a fit all of a sudden is something out of our control? Asking what's wrong when I'm crying or scared with an anxiety attack is never going to get the kinds of answers from us that our partners need. Mine can't understand why I just can't control it... logic and all that jazz.

> Of those whose partners/parents/whatever understand what you're going though, how did you get them to understand?
