I feel like I depend on my boyfriend too much. Nothing makes me happy besides him and I feel myself getting depressed or angry when I can’t call him. My hobbies don’t make me happy. I don’t have good friends. I just feel lonely without him. What do I do?

I don’t want to scare him off because I want his attention and to do things together. But I hate that I feel so crazy when I’m not around him. He’s just the only consistent thing in my life that feels good

I try many hobbies. I have a job. I’m a full time student. I’m just not happy with my life and that’s not anyone’s fault but mine I guess. If a million dollars could fall from the sky maybe u would be happier. I feel like money restricts me from other things that distract me from sadness like shopping. Or eating

Some of you may say I’m depressed and I guess I am. I was diagnosed at 16 with it as well as anxiety and it never went away even after trying 14 medications for it. I just feel bad because I’m scared he will be mad I want to spend so much time with him. I don’t want to upset him or be overbearing. I’m just lonely and unhappy.

This seems like something you should bring up to him just so he knows but honestly that’s a lot of pressure on a partner, it’s tough but maybe you have to put yourself out there and make friends, and figure out how to be happy spending time with yourself, try to find joy in your hobbies or try some new ones, not for him, but for you so you don’t have to only rely on him bc that’s not sustainable
