Women, depression, what the heck is going on?

[ClingingToHope]

I blamed about 99 percent of our separation on my W's depression. She was seeing a counselor last year. She has gained weight. She cut ties with her church. She stopped calling and going out with friends. She's very emotional -- quick to anger.

Then I started going to marriage classes on my own and realizing all of the little things I've been doing wrong over the year. I've gone through five sessions and have yet to have a moment where I said, "there, now I did that right."

I've never cheated, blown money on gambling or drugs and have always had a job and helped around the house. So why am I separated, because I didn't give her the right kind of emotional support.

So don't be so quick to chalk things up to her being depressed. Why is she depressed? Could it be little things you never knew you were doing?
