Sometimes depression is no ones fault, its a physical problem that can't be solved dude. This is where they have to use medication , like a thyroid problem.
Sometimes its just a thought problem that can be corrected with love, understanding, and breaking walls. Like if she was raped or abused.
Its not that she doesn't love you, its that she doesn't love herself. If you love her , you can show her how special she is by what you see in her, and what she means to you. Ill tell you this is hard to do, you must truly love her unconditionally, and spend all your time with her, but when she trust you tells you the truth of what happened to her, it will end, but its a long road.
If its physical no one can solve it dude, sorry, she would need to be medicated for life.

Ill prey for her, and you

Sounds very serious. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

AlaskaSaints 10-30-2011 08:41 AM

Very sorry to hear of your struggle. I'm pretty familiar with it, to be honest.
I've got a beautiful, bright, daughter who has some demons of her own.

I'll be as close to God as possible this week; on a mountain, on the island of Kodiak, in Alaska. I'll put in a prayer for you and your woman.

One thing I know. YOU have to keep it together if your are going to be any help to her. We are born one at a time into this world. Whatever struggle we share after that moment starts with our ability to keep inner self whole before we can attempt to assist others.

Get her some help, but keep yourself whole, bro.

I can't imagine how difficult this is. Hope things get better, take care.

Gotcha man.

papz 10-30-2011 09:54 AM

Good luck man... hope you guys can get through this. I had a close friend have his old lady blow her brains out a few months back... it's been a tough road for him. Surround yourself with close friends and family in tough times man. It'll help... prayers sent.

I don't know what to say. Man that's got to hurt. Thank for posting this on the Saints Forum for maximum exposure. We all understand. This small prayer is for you, her and both families.

May The Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you. May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.

WhoDat!656 10-30-2011 10:14 AM

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your families.

Must be heartbreaking. I'm pulling for you two.

Jack Vegas 10-30-2011 04:19 PM

So sorry to hear this.

I'm a chronic depressive myself and I've never attempted suicide but I know what it feels like. It's a struggle everyday just to accomplish the smallest task. And I've never found a medicine that works to make it any better. I can understand wanting to end it all.

If you love her, you have to just be there for her. That's all she can reasonably ask of you. A hug at the right time can go a long way.

skymike 10-31-2011 07:28 AM

whoa, this is real.
 
Dude, Hopefully you already know-- its not you, its her, right?

I've had 2 or 3 girlfriends throughout my 30 breeding years who had emotional probs. Their problems always became my problems.

(click out now if you're easily offended.)

To be bluntly, brutally honest, I'm better off without them and their drama. I am neither a charity, nor a doctor, so I couldnt help them. I was a free agent, and I was in the market for a companion, thats all. When somebody qualified showed up, I signed her.

I personally dont understand depression.
If youre religious, which I am, then you understand, and have a purpose. You're going to win, no matter what happens. Besides, there's no time for depression, when you have a mission.

If youre not religious, there is still beer, video games, and pornography. I will never understand suicide in a world that has beer, video games, and pornography.

My point is, we're all gonna die. Choose to be happy.
Peace!

TheOak 10-31-2011 07:49 AM

Be there for her.... Not much you can do but try to be there for her.

Easier said than done, but also "try" not to let it effect you too much... If she sees that she is effecting you she may feel guilt and that makes it more difficult for her. One of the hardest things in life to do is to be strong when no one else is.

Belair57 10-31-2011 09:42 PM

Ive been there man...It doesnt get any easier without support. You HAVE GOT to hang in there, show her nothing but positives, take all the negative people out of her life, LOVE her more than anything.

I havent talked to my brother in a while because I am a recovering drunk..and he drank everytime I was around him. Sometimes people near you can cause you pain without even considering the pain your going thru. I know his drinking has no realation to what she is probably going thru but its the same concept. IMO.

Once I took myself out of his influence I didnt feel those feelings any longer. What ever is bothering her, address it.. DO IT NOW. When life is better for her , you will have been the one that was there for her. you can PM me and I like to talk to you more. I have alot of thoughts and feelings on these situations that go alot deeper than anyting I want to expose to everyone..Hang in there man. I KNOW YOUR PAIN

SapperSaint 10-31-2011 10:06 PM

I'm sorry to hear this brother.

I have PTSD and it is a daily struggle. The only thing that gets me throught it is the love that I get from my wife, my kids, my family and friends.

Prayer not only by us, but by you as well; will help. I know you love this woman. You wouldn't have put it on this board if you didn't. I don't know her problems; but pain is in there somewhere. Heartache and pain drives most people to this state in their life. You have got to help her get rid of this pain. Listening to her talk about this things can help. I know it helps me. She needs to know; not hear but KNOW, she is not the only person going through this type of depression.

My prayers are with her and my prayers are with you for you to have the strength to help her get the help she needs. Also remember to seek help for yourself. This is a traumatic situation for you as well.

This site is more than just a Saints web site. If you need to talk, send one of us a message. I don't post everyday...but I do check in at least every other day. God bless y'all brother.

xan 10-31-2011 10:23 PM

I hope your support helps make her pain go away. Best wishes and stay strong.

saintfan 10-31-2011 10:57 PM

I'm with Xan, but unfortunately you likely have very little influence. I've got a bit of experience with this too, although not as drastic as what you're going through.

Let me just say you have some big decisions to make, and no matter which way you go DO NOT beat yourself up. Just remember that you're the only one who can live your life, and she's the only one who can live hers.

I will say a prayer for you man.

This simple song has helped to cure many of my depressions.

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin for
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothin but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.
