<human>: Hello, /r/relationships! (and a happy New Year!)

I(17M) have known my girlfriend for a year, been dating for the past two months. We've been very close to each other since we first met, and have been tentatively dating since until we decided to form a more stable relationship two months ago.

She was always hesitant about starting a relationship because she feared that her stays in the hospital, mood swings, etc. caused by her depression would push me away.

Her depression has not been an issue - I'm always there for her, give her alone time when she needs it and other aspects of our relationship are going swimmingly.

However, I would greatly appreciate some advice about how to be a good partner, what I can do to help her on her bad days, etc. Maybe point me towards any resources to help me understand her condition and make sure our relationship goes smoothly.
