I think I found out why I am so depressed.
I don't think I love my husband...
I am just feeling numb...
don't know if my depression is making me feel this way
or it could be me... I don't even know what I want...

He says he loves me but I don't feel anything
I think I am here because I don't have to do anything...

is this just phases everyone goes through once in a while?
or am I going through mid life crisis???
am I just being bored???

not sure anymore...
I thought about living by myself and I started to have energy...
but scared at the same time...

a lot of ppl are going through divorce around me now days...
am I getting affected???

Has anyone went through feelings like this toward your partner???

How long have you been feeling this way? I have went through periods of time where depression has effected how I see my marriage and I felt similar to what you are explaining. So far what has worked for me is trying to reconnect, getting some good communication going and trying to spend as much time with him as possible. The feelings came back for me though it's hard to say what is causing this for you so your situation may be different.

That is really only something that you can decide yourself. I think you should make a list of things you like and things you don't like about your husband. If the list of things you don't like strongly outweighs the list of things you do like then perhaps you should consider leaving him. If you really think you're better off without him then it's best not to stay in the marriage. Also, how long have you felt this way? If it's only been for a short while, then i would give it more time. I sometimes feel the same about my bf, but i think my depression makes me resent him and only see his flaws at times. Depression does make everything seem worse than it actually is so I don't think you should make a big life altering decision like this when you're feeling depressed.

How long???
I don't know... I married my husband because he loves me to death.
He still says that but I don't feel it.
I don't know if it's because of my depression...it could be me... I am the one who has to change.. He has changed a lot too.
I changed for him but he became really stubborn.
It's just getting worse and worse...
the only reason that I don't just walk away from this relationship is
our child. I know what ppl are going to say...
anyways... I am the one who has to make decision.
I am just... I don't have anyone to talk to...
so I am here...
