Spouse Suffering From Depression

[awest1217]

We have always said to look at the small baby steps, and each baby step is great, but really look how all the small baby steps have turned into huge progress since September. Yea you aren't reconciled, but you have made some major progress. H going to therapy, H accepting he has ADHD and depression, H getting the surgery, H sending you texts to ask about you, H beginning to trust you and realize he needs you. Add all of that together and man has some progress been made.

You still have some huge obstacles ahead. The surgery won't fix everything, but hopefully through this you can show him that you are there for him, and that you are worth changing for. Also getting some good sleep will help as well. Remind him that it will take a while for him to completely feel the affects of the surgery. At first he might feel more tired because he is getting so much better sleep than his body is used to, but after a few weeks of getting some good sleep, he will start feeling better and with time his brain will start to heal.
