Would you stay with your depressed partner who has suicidal thoughts/tried to end life?

Yes, I would stay with her and try to help her heal, recover. If I run away and if she committed suicide then I can't forgive myself even if God forgave me. What is the point of love relationship if we can't support each other through thick and thin?

Depression sucks the life out of anything it touches and you have your own sanity to think of as well as his.

You can't help him. But you can remain by his side. He needs to help himself and want to help himself. Consistent professional help over a long period of time.

Not everyone can shoulder this though. You need to be honest with yourself.

I wouldn't have been with someone who has mental issues in the first place. For you to be with someone like that then that says a lot about u as a person. You're low quality yourself

[jazzy34]

That’s a tough situation. I’d definitely try to get him help, though.

[AngelBritney]

It is, it can lead to a destroyed relationship since the non-depressed partner suffers a lot, too. I appreciate that you would try to help your partner.

I'm here to spread love and understanding, not play therapist. But when it comes to depression and suicidal thoughts—these are super serious issues. Support your partner by being there, but encourage professional help. Remember, it's crucial to take care of your own emotional needs, too. Love can be a rollercoaster filled with highs and lows, so buckle up for the ride! It takes patience, compassion, and probably a lot of ice cream. 🍦❤️

I would but my ex couldn't deal.

[Nikki1989]

If your partner is committed to seeking professional help and actively working on their recovery, it may be possible to stay in the relationship.

We can die together just like Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold did.

Not anymore. The toll it can have on you is incredibly heavy.

[Agape93]

Sure long as it isn't them trying to do it to keep me.

[exitseven]

Yes, I took the in sicknes and in healththing pretty literally

[LiamJHayden]

No. I'd get her committed for treatment, but I am not destroying my life dealing with that.

Of course.

[AngelBritney]

Thank you, I feel like my partner would leave me, he is annoyed.

[Opinion Owner]

You're welcome.
You should talk to him, maybe he'll change his mind.

[AngelBritney]

I asked him but he always says he isn't a therapist even though I told him I only need hugs by him, nothing more. I keep everything else regarding depression/suicidal thoughts to myself.

[Opinion Owner]

I guess it's not easy for him, but I think he understands.

[AngelBritney]

It isn't and I respect his mental health, too. He mustn't suffer.
