Abstract:
People with depression are at a greater risk of letting their emotions sabotage their relationships. They may constantly worry that they aren't good enough for their partners. They may also become irritable with their partners, or push them away when they are feeling sad. To make matters worse, their sex life may suffer. The truth is that feelings of isolation, worthlessness, and tiredness can all take a hefty toll on a romantic relationship. But there is help. Using an integrative approach, When Depression Hurts Your Relationship offers practical skills to help readers with depression reignite intimacy with their partners.
