im finding it hard at the moment explaining what i want to say to my husband as i dont want to upset him, as we are both depressed but he is worse i feel sometimes that im screeming to be heard but when i say anything , it is misunderstood .

Katheryn,
I understand. Have the same situation here. Whenever possible, and it's not always possible, I try to use humor. If you want you can PM, and we can toss some other ideas around. Jane |

so sorry. Is there a way you can write down your thoughts first. Then re-write it making it clear that you love and appreciate him and want to make the best future with him. both in the beginning, middle, and end of your note, so that maybe he hears both messages. Best of luck!

I like the idea of writing it down. Takes some of the pressure off, I think. Keep in mind that people with depression sometimes misinterpret things, so don't feel too bad if he's still not getting it even after your best efforts.

Also, depressed ppl don't express what they're thinking, or meaning, well at times either. Having a communication between two depressives is quite a feat... imo Depression is a serious disorder. I hope if both of you won't go to a therapist (together and separately) then please go yourself... your troubles seem more than you can handle. TC
