Not everyone has all of the same signs or symptoms of depression. Everyone is different in terms of how severe each symptom is. Keep in mind that some people experience multiple major depressive episodes throughout life, while others just experience mild depression that may not last as long. Some symptoms of depression include:  Feelings of hopelessness or worthlessness Loss of interest in pleasurable activities Fatigue or low energy Irritability Changes in appetite and sleep Difficulty focusing on and meeting responsibilities Suicidal thoughts Because depression symptoms interfere with how your boyfriend functions in everyday life, you may experience difficulties in your relationship. You may take on more than your “fair share” in the relationship for a little while, but if your boyfriend is able to get treatment for depression, this won’t last forever.  He may have stopped going to work, which can put a financial burden on you. He may avoid social interaction, which can leave you feeling isolated. He may be less interested in sex, which can affect intimacy. You may have to take on more household responsibilities and chores. There are many different treatment options out there for depression. The first step is often going to a primary care physician, who can rule-out other conditions, recommend medications, and recommend a therapist or psychiatrist. Getting treatment earlier may help reduce symptoms quickly and get your boyfriend out of treatment sooner. Treatment options include:  Medication Sessions with mental health counselor, social worker, or psychiatrist Support groups Dietary and lifestyle changes Relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and meditation Alternative methods, like acupuncture and vitamins Depression is a serious condition. Your boyfriend may attempt suicide or have suicidal thoughts. If your boyfriend is very depressed and hopeless, he may not see any way out of it. Call 911 or your boyfriend’s doctor or therapist if you notice any of these warning signs:  Acting recklessly or dangerously. Saying goodbye and giving belongings away. Talking about hurting himself. Being preoccupied with death. Men may experience depression in unique ways that aren't noticeable as depression. For example, they may act more irritably or aggressively when depressed. Other signs your boyfriend may be depressed without telling you include:  Drinking or other reckless behavior. Withdrawing from your relationship. Having an affair with someone else. Experiencing more physical aches and pains.
