How to reclaim independence in mental health treatment within relationships

My boyfriend has been incredibly supportive during my depression treatment but I think I've made him feel responsible for monitoring my medication and therapy progress in ways that aren't healthy for either of us. I need to take back ownership of my treatment but I don't know how to do that without making him feel like his support doesn't matter.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Over-involvement from a caring partner has shifted responsibility for treatment management away from the patient.
