Yes, I have been through something similar if you mean a horrible divorce and severe depression. Mine was only 14 years long though. I would say traumatizing for myself rather than toxic as well. It involved child abuse, suicidal behavior, infidelity, police, alcoholism, and the death of my dog. And yes, I have come through the other side and am recovering.
I'm so sorry you are going through this. I don't have comforting words for depression. It is never good.
What do you mean she left you after the last episode? Of depression?

Since 1991, l have experienced various degrees of depression in 4yr cycles. My wife has been with me through the previous episodes abd the effect that it had on both of us and our sons. But due to the length and severity of this episode of depression my wife has said,
1. I had given up trying to get better
2. My wife had experienced depression herself this time.
3. She can't go thro this again and wants the rest of her life to be free of me and my depression.
I have pleaded with her but to no avail, 27yrs gone, life empty.
