Why not try something radical? Couples therapy. All the focus on your mental health issues may not be the central concern or concerns your spouse is feeling. YA'LL NEED TO TALK TO EACH OTHER - and a professional marriage/family counselor sounds like what you need right now. Some people say, "But I can't afford it," and when they get the divorce papers they say, "You should have convinced me to do it."
