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.

I am guessing that when winter finally ends you will feel a bit better. No matter how hard winter tries, sooner or later it has to give way to spring.
Just a thought, some people report feeling better when they get some light bulbs that match the sun better in terms of light spectrum.
Hope you feel better soon,
Gentle hugs
you are right though everything does eventually give way. so hopefully this too shall pass.
You really have more then what one person should have to handle. Do you have help taking care of your spouse? Maybe if you had some help to give yourself a break it might be easier for you. Some "me" time might do you some good. Don't feel guilty if you feel overwhelmed.
I hope you get a break soon. Hugs.
I hope he rejuvenates you and gives you peace
Good luck with finding help here. They just ignore perfectly. I understand you perfectly.
You CAN talk to me... I will answer and not just give " hugs."
