the stress your under with been a care giver is going to put u down. unfortunately with some1 like use (clinical depression) this kind of stress will trigger another bout of depression. im really sorry to hear that your mother is so sick and that your fathers in prison.

I dont tink that your husband is being stand offish with you but hes under pressure to from his family. i no u say he cnt pull himself out of his mood but ive to expect people to put up with us when we cant pull ourselfs out of it, maybe he needs a little bit extra time. i no its frustrating but dnt let others ruin things between u's 2.

i no u said you tried to tlk to him but he wnt tlk bout it. is your husband suffering from depression 2 that might be why hes closing himself off.

I no in my family if my dad was challanged about how he felt he would give my mam the silent treatment because he was brought up as a tipical irish man that didnt tlk bout his feelings. some men find it hard to chat bout that kind of stuff. some see it as a weekness. sorry this prob isnt very helpful
