RWAS, I'm glad to see that you're still doing the work smile. I love FG's random smile exercise. It's so powerful because when you live with a depressed H, it can undermine your sense that you can make people feel good and be a positive influence. A depressed spouse becomes a funhouse mirror where the only reflection you see of yourself is a distorted one.

Sorry, but I don't recall if you've discussed LLs in your thread? Do you know yours? Do you know your husband's?

Hang in there!
