I also have a lot going on and no problem Galing and keeping myself busy. For me sometimes the opposite has helped when I'm down and that's doing very little. Bumming around the house and not feeling bad about it.

Prior to my h crisis I needed to accomplish something every day now the only thing on my To Do list is take care or myself and my girls. Go easy on myself be gentle.

The other night before my talk we my husband we ordered in dinner. Generally I am obsessed with making dinner for my girls so that they eat healthy but sometimes taking care of us means no cooking and no dishes.

Just brainstorming but try doing less and loving it.

I know your wife has an ic but is she on meds. Sounds like she needs to be on something and if she is on something they need to change it up.

Since she is in ic hopefully she will not have to hit rock bottom. A good IC should be able to help her out of this without hitting bottom. Is this the best C for your W? Maybe someone new/more experience with MLB would help.

I can relate to the complexity of detaching yet wanting to be present enough for them to come back. It's impossible to balance both perfectly. Just do the best you can.

Hang in there
