Snodderly I just wanted to thank you for posting those links to your old threads about depression.
Everyone needs to read through this thread! Boy it adds up!
This is what I really need to be hearing and learning about now. I think we all tend to get so wrapped up in the titt for tatt of it all, the nit picking, hurt feelings, that we tend to forget were this really comes from.
I've realized that since I've detatched and healed quite a bit Im able to go back in my mind to 18 months ago and really see XH for the horrific pain he was in! I really had no idea that serious depression can lead to such personality changes. Due to the serious spew and completely irrationality I really thought that the depression was just an act to get away and not real.
