Your question is a hard one...first when you met him he already had the genes or whatever that make a person suspectible for depression. You were just lucky then that it did not manifast itself. You don't know all his past so he might have had depressive moods in the past that he has not told you about. He might not have even known himself. Some people live with depression thinking its their norm. I was one of those myself.
Will things get back to the same way? Your husband probably was suffering a lot before but unable to pinpoint it. Now he is better...that caring, sensitive man is still there.....he is just not being hurt by what he feels now.
The only thing they say is constant is change......thank God it was not something worse. Right now he has a treatable illness.
You are also changing. I think now together you can still make a wonderful life together. You are blessed to have someone. If you feel that this change in him and you is impacting you so much, maybe consider therapy for you to help you adjust to things as they are now.
Thanks for posting!
Many hugs;
