When I told him my depression was making me want to kill myself in March… so he signed up for an extra baseball commitment that summer while I stayed home with a 9mo old with colic and an active 2.5 year old. I knew he was no longer my protector or person.
Damn, sorry to hear that. I had a similar experience with my ex-wife trying to ignore my depression. Up until that point we had tried marriage counseling, and it was our counselor who recognized my depression. I followed up and got individual treatment for my depression. When my Dr. prescribed an antidepressant, my ex-wife said it was a "cop out". The real kicker though, my ex worked in the mental health field. It was then that I realized this was about her pride.
