Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
My husband wants a divorce. I am 100 % disabled. Have suffered depression and other mental impairments off and on. Live on a fixed income.
I said great. Wait until I am so broken down and leave. He says you have been broken for years.
This man does not know the concept of love. Feel like I am the one who is crazy. Is it all me????

I would say that that is a manipulative response and not helpful to the situation.
Why does he want to leave?
How has he been feeling over the years?
Has he been getting his needs met in the marriage?
If he is unhappy, you need to find out why. Marriage involves two people, both of whom have to get their needs met in order to continue.
No akacountrygirl you are not a manipulative person. My god that woman has been hurting people in crisis here left and right.
Crazy in what way? But no, neither of you is responsible or accountable for the actions of the other.
Some people who want to never "feel stuck" or "trapped" by an 100% commitment avoid marriage for that very reason, and then others sometimes come up with all kinds of convoluted reasons or excuses for breaking the "in sickness and in health until parted by death" vow they had made.
My thoughts are with you are you try to sort what to do.
