These two are absolutely spot on. Well done for recognising the issue yourself before you push away those who care about you.

100% true.
We only have 10 members here and we're all between 14 to 16 with no life experiences yet.
Mental age and dupe accounts galore
This. Talk about it with her, tell her what you're feeling - explain how you've had your 'off' moments with her to reassure her that it's something she hasn't done - and how you're going to try and get it fixed.

Go to your GP, theyll always help and if you think you do need therapy take the plunge and get it worth the try remember your thinking about yourself not the past you need to get yourself sorted and back on track!

If you think you need therapy, you probably need therapy. It'll do you good.
I remember my mum telling us about her depression. You reminded me with the bit about, knowing what you're doing but not being able to stop yourself. That's exactly how my mum described her mental state.
She got help from the doctor and got through a difficult time, it can be done mate, just don't think being strong is being alone in your fight.

GP.
CBT Therapy or similar.
Profit.
I had 12 weeks last year, it's changed my life. Made it harder in some ways as I'm much less submissive but I am getting my positivity and productivity back for life which is all that matters. You have a loving girlfriend, tell her straight up what you think it is and that you're going for help. Anyone worth your time will understand. If she struggles there's some good books out there that can be good for you both to read.
Most of all, congrats for identifying it just got sit in front of a GP and start the ball rolling as it can be a long process. Be prepared to help yourself and only yourself. They give you the tools to help yourself but only you can solve it. You have to use them

At least you acknowledge there is something wrong - so you're off to a good start. Definitely seek counselling. Didn't really work for me but it is a personal thing.
Look after your lady - you take things out on her because you can. Sounds weird but it's probably true. However you can't keep doing that if you want to keep her. Sounds like the's something very positive in your life.
Good luck - I hope everything works out. As some have said and you already know this, it's going to take time.
