I have problems with depression. Can I bear to be married?

Question

My mother is worried about me. Sometimes I am normal, sometimes I am depressive, sometimes my mind is absent, sometimes I need rest.
I am not sure if I can bear married life because I am not able to accept stressfull situations. But on the other hand I am lonely.
Should I remain alone or should I marry and risk my heath?

Answer 1

Its possible your loneliness has something to do with your depression so marriage MIGHT alleviate your problem. But it can also be worsened since A. you might be too lonely to choose the right person to marry, and B. if it's NOT because of loneliness, then the extra stress will surely make you worse.

I suggest seeking counseling from a professional (psychiatrist or psychologist/counselor) before marriage since you have the odds against you.

Answer 2

Sometimes the stress is caused by the enviroment you are in. If there is someone in your life (a boyfriend) who makes you feel good about yourself, then maybe this is something that you should look into....never jump into anything...feel the waters...But maybe the stress comes from living at home and not having a life of your own.

Answer 3

get married and maybe the depression will go away .
being lonely maybe the cause of the depression and remember there are many meds out there that will help with the depression problem.
the meds and a special person who will understand and help you work though your problem is better then trying to do it alone.

Answer 4

Never marry just to avoid being lonely. You should see a therapist to get treatment for your depression.

Answer 5

Kanga is right. You need to get your life worth bearing before you try and take on someone elses needs.

Answer 6

find a suitable mistress who you can afford. Call her when you need her.
