Living with a sufferer of depression

My partner suffers from depression.

Living with and loving someone who suffers from depression is incredibly challenging and in so many different ways.


One of the hardest things is having very little knowledge or understanding of Depression - its causes/symptoms/cures (!) and I really should be better informed.


My hope is that at the end of these 31 Days of Writing, I will have become far more informed, shared that knowledge with anyone reading out there and perhaps created a place where others in my situation can share advice, support and sometimes an ear that's willing to hear us rant!


If you're along for the ride, it'll no doubt be a bumpy one...but you're probably used to that already!
