I lost my mum 14months ago, my partner struggled to support me as my grief triggered his and I ended up supporting him instead. I feel resentful of having such little support while trying to grieve and have communicated this to him which he was very apologetic, i know he wasnt unsupportive on purpose. The problem is the last 3-6 months I have fallen into quite a fit of depression and honestly have no clue who i am anymore. I am not happy at all atm and am worried this is the beginning of the end of my relationship. Im making no rash decisions while i get support for my grief but just wanted to get some advice from other people who may know. Sorry this is long and a bit wordy. Thank you 
I’m so sorry about your mum, @Kelma01. Grief can be tough on relationships, and I’m sorry that you didn’t get the support you needed.
You mention that you’ve fallen into a pit of depression recently. Are you getting any support for this? If not, it might be worth having a chat with your GP.
It’s understandable that you don’t want to make any rash decisions right now. For help and guidance with relationships, you might want to look at the Relate website. They offer counselling, and their website has lots of self-help tools you may wish to explore.
I’m sure someone will be along to share their thoughts, too. Keep reaching out and take good care.
