How do you tell someone there isn’t anything they can do to help with your depression?
I have an ex (we talk occasionally) who keeps asking if there is anything he can do to help with my depression. I can’t say “just be there” because we aren’t close like that. I try to keep it light like “keep being your awesome self” but he keeps asking. I get that he cares, but I don’t know what to say. “Not really, but thanks for caring”? That sounds weird to me. Maybe I just think it’s weird that he asks. I feel weird when anyone asks, really. I guess have issues asking and accepting help from people. I posted here, so that’s a step! Lol.
