When roommates become enmeshed in each other's mental health struggles

My roommate and I both work from home and we started as strangers but now we're deeply involved in each other's daily struggles with depression and productivity, and I can't tell if we're helping each other or creating a feedback loop of dysfunction. We care about each other but I think our support might actually be enabling our worst habits.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Proximity and care have created interdependence that may be perpetuating the very problems it seeks to address.
