It's great that you have someone else that sees and understands your depression. I think that other people with mental illnesses are more receptive and sensitive to eachothers emotional needs. I go to a few support groups and we can usually tell when someone is not right. My problem is that I hide all of my emotions, I bury them inside me. My husband usually has no idea what is happening (because he won't educate himself on bipolar). In the end I end up in the hospital. I take Lamictal and Savella for my depression and they are working well for me. Hope your depression lifts soon.
