hello...been living with a depressed spouse for 7 years now. She has her good and bad days (6 bad, 1 good per week) I am slowly going depressed myself and feel resentment becasue she cannot fill my emotional needs anymore. I try to help, but shes resistant. I really need to chat with people that are in the same situation and how to deal with it and possibly help in some way or the other.
If you are in a similar boat...I would love to chat. You canemail me at rdavison100@yahoo.com or post here (dont get here often so may take awhile to get back) Posted on 02/07/07, 10:02 am |

I don't have a lot of advice but try to understand her/you and depression. I'm also living with a "other" that is a self centered, control freak that has no understanding of depression. But he knows it all. As long as the world evolves around him, it's OK. But when I feel down, depressed, hurt, lonely and need that strength and support from (him) the door shuts in my face. Knowing this about this ass hole, I have also learned that I'm not alone out here, and that there just is ass holes in this world. Don't plan on spending my life here either. There are other men out there that would be interested in me (I think). I'm 54, blonde, 5'3", and nice looker, hard worker, love to hunt and fish. So, I think I can do better then this. Think positive and try to understand her as well as yourself.

I am new to this board and i too am in the same boat as you.But i have been only dealing with this for eight months and shocked to see you have been doing this for seven years.I thought eight months was to long.My husband was always a strong man so to see him this way pains me.But i am unsure if i can keep doing this.He rejects me and says that i am the one who causes him to be sick.He wont get help i have tried and so has other family members but he said he is not depressed just has depressive issues.I have been with him since i was fourteen now i am thirty four.I still love him just dont know if i can undure the pain i am put through.I hope i can stay as stronge and hope he will get help soon.

I've been dealing with it for 15 years. On the one hand, I want to blame myself for marrying him in the first place when I knew before we married that he was deceitful and off-balance. But on the other hand, I still believe God has put us together and that He wants me to stand by my husband through his illness.
But it's been 15 years of unfulfilled need. Threats of abandonment, financial insecurity, lies and deception. And, of course, all my fault. Now, he says he can't give me the love I need and deserve because of his resentment and anger. Mind you, he's resentful and angry about all the horrific things he's done to me... I remind him of his guilt. If any of you out there are not yet married to a person like this but are considering it.... DON'T! Even if they appear to be getting better, even if they insist they're now ok, if you look very closely, you'll still see signs of something amiss. Keep your eyes wide open... resists the idea that "love conquers all" -- it's a myth. God go with you.
