I'm feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, and unsure how long I can keep doing this

My boyfriend's depression and lack of stability are taking a toll on me, causing me to feel drained and stressed

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had known how to set boundaries and prioritize my own needs earlier"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be honest with yourself and your partner about what you can and cannot sustain in a relationship"
