Gillybear - 1st I want to say that I recognize your efforts...not many are willing to be so helpful. It's very difficult to live with someone going through a slump...no passion for anything and not showing much passion for the relationship either.
If she has never dealt with any kind of depression before...it may be hard for her to admit it...and keep hoping things will get better.
She is lucky to have you - my x was not interested in my struggle - he was just happy that I was getting help.
Good luck...I hope she reaches out for help sooner rather than later.
