I love my husband to death, but sometimes he really pisses me off.
 Neither one of us have jobs right now, and every time I mention him getting a job, he throws in my face "well you could get a job too ya know." IT'S JUST NOT THAT EASY!!! My disability prevents me from getting a lot of jobs and also my depression is really kicking my butt right now... I have no energy whatsoever, I sleep 13+ hours a day, I am crying all the time, etc WHY CAN'T HE UNDERSTAND THIS?!?! Is he just in denial that something is wrong with his wife or what? Ugh... I am so emotionally drained.

  I wish I knew what to tell you. It sounds like you're in a really frustrating situation right now. What I do have to give you are hugs, lots and lots of hugs!!

Sounds like he really does not understand depression. The only people that seem to truly understand depression and other mental health issues are those that have them too.
I wouldn't bring up him anything about getting a job anymore. He will either do what he needs to do or he won't, you trying to push him will just upset both of you. Take care of yourself, do what you need to do to keep yourself okay. We are here for you Manda.

Can't stop you from praying and blessing me, and if that makes you feel better feel free.  But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me. And let's all respect each other's feelings. With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."

Manda
MandaMandaThat's all I got for now .  Take care and try not to let the job thing add to your frustrations. It sounds like you have enough to deal with at the moment.

he's probably feeling the strain too... and incorrectly throwing some of it back on you. It sounds like he's frustrated - that he WANTS you to be able to get a job, just like you want HIM to get a job. I'm sorry he's putting everything back on your shoulders, I hope you guys can find a job for him and things get better
