She's seeing a psychiatrists right now, but I don't really know what she has told him. She has made mention of needing to see a therapist off and on over the last few months, but she hasn't taken any steps to actually follow through.

She certainly isn't going to respond favorably to me trying to drag her anywhere. I insisted she go to a psychiatrist after a problem she had, but until something else happens like that, I don't think we're going to see much progress.

She often feels overwhelmed having to take care of D, and I know she doesn't like feeling like a 'mom' too much. After D was born we didn't really spend a whole lot of time together as a couple - Everything we did we did with D, so I think that was pretty stressful for us both.
