Hi Lisa - thanks for your comment. I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I hope your significant other has recovered well from having cancer. You say that he wants to learn more about the mental health issues you've been struggling with, which is great to hear. He sounds very supportive. In my experience, it can be difficult for partners to understand mental health challenges if they haven't experienced them themselves, but a partner's willingness to learn can go a long way. I'd encourage you to seek resources to help you understand your own mental health challenges, and even share some of these resources with him. HealthyPlace's page on general mental health information might be a great place to start: https://tinyurl.com/bdh5dr8x. Hope this helps. I wish you both well!
