Quoting kml:

I talked a little about the bb, and wondered how many WAS's are suffering from clinical depression - I suspect a large percentage.

I would guess a lot. I have had a very difficult time with depression, not recently but in the past. It does cloud your views on things. Of course, stuff happening in the persons life can help trigger the depression too - so it goes hand in hand. But it doesn't have to be a big something, nor necessarily the fault of the spouse/SO.
