Frighteningly this all sounds so familiar. I can empathise with your W and with Delia and her mum. My H and I got ourselves into a similar sort of cycle. I also have been on antedepressants. Are you still on them Delia?
I came off mine and am now wondering about the wisdom of that as my Sitch was stable after reconciling with H after his A, but now I think I am in danger of becomimg WAW as I get more unhappy.
One thing I found Mr H was that I had to be ready to face things when the blowouts got too much. I had to be the one to recognise that I needed help. MY H did not really have any control over that. I was just lucky that I didn't know about his A until I had commenced upon the road to recovery and was able to deal with it all - infact it was my dealing with myself that brought H back to me.
There is hope....
