BG yes to all of the above. H never was officially diagnosed with depression but there has def been signs over the years. My H doesn't slump in front of the tv but he has thrown himself into these detailed and time consuming crafts like woodworking. He will spend 5 to 6 hours completely focused and ignore everything else including kids. To me it is just another form of escapism.
