We can’t diagnose your wife.

I’ve never heard of depression causing someone to become abusive.
You can’t make your wife to change her ways. She doesn’t sound depressed to me but if she is, it’s neither here nor there. She’s abusive.

What made you to marry a woman over 40 years younger than you? It’s unusual. Maybe she realized in a few years she’ll be your care giver. Age difference is acceptable but this isn’t regular age difference, you could be her grandfather. 42 years? My husband is 58. I can’t imagine anything on what planet he’d be interested in someone 42 years younger than him? 16 year old? It’s not a regular age difference. What the…

Did you focus on her human qualities or her youth and good looks when you marry her? People don’t change all of a sudden going from kind and loving to mean and abusive. Plus she started cheating early on. Why do you need her? She won’t change.

I’d not advocate for trying to get her back. File for full custody. Make sure your child is raised well
