How do you deal with watching this from the other side of the wedding ring?
It's a very hard situation. My husband was diagnosed two weeks ago with major depressive disorder. Before that, I have watched him have episodes every few months that have almost brought him to the point of suicide. It's been a fight to get him to realize things aren't "normal"...and now, we begin the fight to get him somewhere remotely close to that elusive state.
Step #1...You can begin to address the problem the moment you admit there is a problem in the first place
Anyone out there who can relate to loving your spouse and watching them suffer like this?
