    My boyfriend has been depressed since September. His aunt who he was really close with died, he's failing school...he's just been having a horrible time lately. I do everything I can to try and make him feel better, I listen to him when he needs it, I do special little things for him to make him happy. It just seems like I'm not doing enough. Him feeling so down is starting to make me feel down. What can I do?

    Nakedman is right, it DOES sound like you're doing everything possible for your boyfriend. Remember, it's only been a couple of months since the tragedy, so don't expect him to get all cheery so soon. Just keep loving him, and eventually(...hopefully) he'll begin to be able to enjoy life again. At any rate, sorry to hear about the loss... :-(

    Have you tried spicing up the sex life? Maybe wake him up giving him a bj or suggest anal. That may sound crude, but it would make me happy for damn sure.

    Also, possibly travel together to the psychedelic realm>? I would suggest shrooms over LSD if he's depressed...maybe a picnic?

    I would suggest you two start a couples activity you can both enjoy. Some exercise would do him good. Anything to help release some endorphins, geprodis might be on to something too. And a little encouragement goes a long way, don't forget to remind him how strong he is and how proud you are of him etc.
    Once he gets back into a regular routine of exercise and positive thinking he'll be right as rain.
