Why Do We Sabotage Relationships During Depression?

B.C. Dodge explores how depression can impact personal relationships, often leading to unintentional sabotage.

In a previous episode, B.C. discussed supporting someone with depression. This time, he shares his personal struggles after a challenging week.

He reflects on a common response to depression: pushing people away. This behavior, though often unconscious, can alienate loved ones, creating a cycle of isolation fueled by feelings of unworthiness.

According to Med Broadcast, “People with depression often frustrate and alienate those around them.” This dynamic leaves both individuals and their support systems feeling helpless and unsure how to navigate the situation.

Through honest reflection, B.C. revisits the importance of practicing self-care, accepting support, and working to rebuild relationships affected by depression.
