Every other day or so, she falls into her depressive episode
do you think that its possible that these arent episodes, but that she is depressive, and work is mostly an outlet? people with depression tend to find something to pour themselves into, sometimes obsessively.
I don't know what I can do to help her through this. I try to be there for her and let her talk to me about her thoughts,
if so, you may be finding that the distance between the two of you has existed for some time, but is more pronounced, and less easily manageable, with more unstructured time together.
I try to have conversations with her, but she doesn't make any effort.
how do they go? it sounds like she kind of shuts them down, with general "the world is a bad place" statements, but what do you say? what is the back and forth like?
