Show ur partner the posts u get on here they may help. look up exercise and depression online it releases endorfins which improve mood and brain chemistry. and Art Therapy; channelling what ur feeling into something creative helps ur brain process the negativity in ur head. also find some volunteer work; helping others or nature builds selfesteem, gives life new meaning gives perspective and good karma... u dont have to believe in god but finding some spirituality can really help and good karma is a good start... basically research all u can on depression then when u find things that help come on here and share with the other deprrssed people, more good karma. good luck. Why not join clubs groups and activities in your community where you'll meet like minded people. Or challenge yourself by joining group you would normally be interested in.

Yes, there are support groups run by MDF-the Bipolar organisation and the one I go to welcomes partners/carers
