So I was with my daughter's dad for a year and a half. He use to abuse me when we were together. We still like each other, but we want to get our relationship fixed. We are both abusive to each other and we want to fix that. We have a baby girl together that my brother and his wife has right now. We are trying to get her back into our lives again. We want to change for her and for the both of us as well. His name is Dakota [last name redacted to protect member privacy] and my name is Selena [last name redacted to protect member privacy]. He is 20 years old and I am 26 years old. We use to live with each other. It's been a hard year for us. We have a lot to work on with each other. What can we do to help our relationship?? Need some answers with this. I can't get over him and he can't get over me. So what should we do??

Hello @Selenaadolphi‍, thank you for opening this discussion and sharing what you've been going through with your partner. The National Domestic Violence Hotline has a lot of helpful resources if you'd like to learn more about relationship abuse and have a confidential, 24/7 helpline if you ever feel unsafe. Let me tag some other members who can possibly share with you.

Hi everyone, how are you today?  

Have you ever had difficulty in your relationships because of your or your partner's depression? Have you ever dealt with abuse in a relationship? How did you get through it? Do you have any advice for Selenaadolphi?
@prin.cssaa‍ @Quadzyi1‍ @Amorris97‍ @Anita1985‍ @jdcarlyon‍ @Tisharenna18‍ @justwanttoclearmyhead‍ @valerie711‍ @mikaylamarie‍ @Zpmoore6‍ @alexisnhh‍ @Jords808‍ @Tatman75‍ @Tkalek‍ @Yesse1.2‍ @luffles‍ @Lalalala‍ 

Feel free to share any experiences or advice here, we're all here to support one another!

Take care,

So I am a 19yr old and I have 2 children with my ex. We have been together on and off for almost 5 years. We just recently broke up about 2 months ago, and I’m still in love with him, and I’m just afraid he’s already moved on. I’ve been getting messages from multiple different people that my best friend and him are together and that they’re flirting. I asked them both about it and they got super defensive with me and started being rude about it. They both told me that nothing was going on, and that they were only just friends but she’s been going over to his house almost every single day…I just don’t know what I should do or believe because this wouldn’t be the first time my ex has tried to get with one of my friends, or the first time my friends have tried to get with him.

Hi @Mattboy90, thank you for sharing with us. I've moved your comment to this thread about toxic relationships. Depression can really take a toll and make it hard to maintain healthy relationships. I'm sorry to hear you both are suffering. Can you tell us a little bit more (if you feel comfortable) so that maybe others can share some advice?

Has anyone else had a hard time in your relationships because of depression? How did you get through it? Can you share any advice with Mattboy90?

@Faithh@user5678562@Tommy341@Coco11@Dolphin21@itsquiet@Treasa@wsr8675@Vdubkid99@MissMemphis82@sage21@Lashaycole1993@Indiaalove@Malory27@EAASH88@Rautiogirl@Marcyisdead@keahna@InsideHerMind

Take care,

Courtney
