Spouse Suffering From Depression

[awest1217]

I completely understand the frustration. Having H say things to OW in your house is sickening, especially after you have gone out of your way to show him love and support. I completely understand!

It is good that you are seeing how things can definitely change for the good as he gets help. You are completely right that right now he can't make good decisions because that part of his brain has shut down. Once it starts working, there is a good possibility he will start to realize his decisions were wrong and that he could get more help. Also then he can work through the negative feelings. The one thing to look out for is him feeling so ashamed by the decisions that he has made that he withdrawals more. Watch for that because as he realizes what he has done and his brain begins to say that he is wrong it could happen.

Have a good week and just remember things are slowly going to the positive. Let him start to get help and see where things go from there. Don't put too much hope in it, but it is definitely progress. The hard part is waiting...
