Pushing people away

Post Reply New Topic

I'm depressed at the moment and feeling stuck and angry. Things are seemingly looking up for me, but my mood plummeted.
Today I've been wanting to push my boyfriend away from talking to me. Yet, when he said he was feeling sick and tired and wanted to go to bed, I wanted to stay on the phone.

I may have to just not talk to him for a day or more because I been thinking I may end up pushing him away or hurting him.

Anybody else deal with similar emotions and thoughts?

I pushed people away, but not a boyfriend, I only had one boyfriend in my life.

Depressed people always push people away when they're really down in the dumps but sometimes that's when they need attention the most. You just have to be able to determine when it's the time to give attention and when its the time to leave someone alone.
