In NLP, mental health conditions are often modeled as isolated phenomena, without interpersonal context. We use Reddit posts about long-distance relationships to capture both mental health distress and associated relational triggers. We introduce the Relational Stress and Psychiatry Corpus (RSPC) containing 1,799 Reddit posts annotated by psychiatrists for diagnostic categories, including the most prevalent mood disorders (anxiety and depression), relational stressor triggers, and indications of relationship phase. We benchmark seven fine-tuned transformer models and five large language models across multi-label disorder classification, relational trigger detection, and temporal phase prediction tasks. We find clear task-dependent differences between model families, with Claude-3-Haiku achieving the best disorder classification performance (Macro-F1 = 0.538) and GPT-4o obtaining the strongest relational trigger detection performance (Macro-F1 = 0.519), suggesting distinct model capabilities. We further find strong associations between anxiety disorders and chronic relational uncertainty. Overall, RSPC establishes a benchmark for NLP tasks that consider relational context and supports a shift from individual-centric to context-aware mental health modeling that captures the social and temporal dynamics of distress.
