Hi caram,

It does sound like depression to me. I also have a way to suggest to you to think about your husband's lie. I actually think that not being unable to forgive people is a symptom of depression. It doesn't even matter if they are sorry or deserve forgiveness or if your perceptions about the situation are correct. It's what I think of as the big trick of depression. The thing you focus on most and ruminate about is distracting you from the essence of the underlying problem. See if these notes make sense to you:
