Depression can feel like you’re under a perpetual dark cloud. It also causes uncharacteristically negative thoughts about yourself, others and your future. If you are feeling powerless, experiencing dark moods or noticing unusually negative thoughts, it might be time to check out the patterns of communication in your relationship and see if your relationship is the reason.

Here are 10 relationship warning signs to note. Fortunately, there are actions you can take to combat each of these dangers. Danger signs aren’t the kiss of death for a relationship. They do, however, warn you to take adequate safety measures. (Also, be aware that women and men are equally likely to experience depression in relationships.)

1. You feel dominated.

Depression can emerge when you feel smaller and less powerful than the person you’re interacting with.

Not all power differences create depression. For instance, while a parent has most of the power in a healthy parent-child relationship, as long as the parent uses this power to nurture, rather than to dominate, over the child all will be well. Similarly, employers have more power than employees.

In love relationships between two adults, though, shared power is healthier.
