My husband had a episode last year and it was when we seemed help from his primary care who prescribed him antidepressants. After 2 months, he was just like a zombie. He didn’t like it so he stopped it and he was back the way he was. We were doing great, until this past Monday his mood just changed completely he didn’t go to work and he said he was feeling down and wants to disappear. I can tell he’s in a lot of pain. He went back to the doctors and got back on medication. He’s shutting me out just like last year. I can tell he feels ashamed. We’re not sleeping in the same bed cause he doesn’t want to see me. Even though he comes home from work everyday, he does not make any eye contact with me only difference this time is that he’s not running away and he’s trying to face it but he doesn’t want me to see him or ask questions. I try to make conversation with him he just doesn’t want to talk to me. I’m trying to give him his space and I’m hoping the medication will start to work soon. I just know he’s trying but I don’t know for how long. What do I do when my spouse doesn’t want my help with anything and shuts me out? Do I wait until he gets out of this episode and then we figure things out? At this point I can’t do or say anything cause he won’t let me.
