I COMPLETELY agre with what ALL the other WISE and WONDERFUL posters have already WISELY AND WONDERFULLY SAID BETTER THAN I EVER COULD! I am TRULY, DEEPLY SORRY that BOTH You and Your Husband are struggling SO BADLY, @Mbluish, and that you're BOTH going through ALL OF THIS! My advice would be to just do what he asks and give him some space. It seems like he may need it. I am SURE he has nothing against you and that he still Loves you very much. Unfortunately it is hard to show it when we're depressed! Please be kind to yourself. What you can do is be near him, support him, tell him you'll ALWAYS Love him no matter what and give him space when he needs it. I do believe that your family may have played a role on Him falling back in his Depression but I believe that it wasn't the ONLY factor involved. That's just my opinion anyway! It is WONDERFUL that he's seeing a therapist and keeping himself busy at least! I know it's hard but please hang in there. I also COMPLETELY agree with the wise and wonderful divine1966 about considering Couple Counseling if you feel like it may be appropriate. Feel free to PM me ANYTIME if you need advice and support or even simply someone to talk to or vent to! I am SURE plenty of others will also GLADLY, KINDLY, WISELY and WONDERFULLY help you out as well! Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH You, @Mbluish, Your Husband, Your Friends And ALL Of Your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking! I am TRULY, DEEPLY SORRY that BOTH You and Your Husband are hurting and struggling SO BADLY and that you're BOTH going through ALL OF THIS!
