I am really trying to find an area with people dealing with a similar situation to me. My husband suffers deeply from depression. I am at a dead end with what to do, and I really need some support, but I can't seem to find much very easily. A month ago he almost made a choice that would have destroyed our relationship forever and I can't help but keep thinking about that as he is sinking back into a similar mindset as he was then. Please help.
Hugs from:
Fizzyo, Fuzzybear

There is an actual forum for people dealing with the support of a depressed/ill loved one:

Partners of People with Personality Disorders - Forums at Psych Central

At the same I wanna just

reach out my hand and hug you. I'm not longer in a marriage but currently in a close friendship with someone who suffers from depression like me. It's so hard at times to be so worried about them... You are not alone though!
Thanks for this!

In addition to online you might find a support group in your area. For example most or all DBSA support group meetings (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) allow and encourage spouses to attend and some even offer separate sessions for spouses/family only.

There is also a forum for partners and caregivers if you haven't already found it.
