Under the MLC Resources thread, I created a listing of books on the various MLC related books that I felt were excellent. Other posters added to them. The thread is called "Highly Recommended Reading Materials". There are a number of good books on depression there.
Each and every symptom that you've described reeks of depression at its finest. This isn't about you, the children or the relationship that you had...it's all about him and until he either seeks and follows the doctor's orders or hits bottom, he's going to be floundering in that sea of depression. It's really very important that you step back from it all and just let him drift until he hits that big wave that will knock him over the edge and back to reality.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
