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 won't friggin go to work! He calles in weeks at a time and only goes for a few weeks before the next round starts. He doesn't seem depressed, still eats, watches tv, plays with the dogs, will do what is fun for him. With all my issues I am still working. We aren't going to be able to pay rent, and might loose our home. Any time I mentions anything he gets angery. He's ruining our marriage and recking our finances even more than they are. We are royally screwed. I am so mad and hurt. I am really leaning towards divorce, our 1st anniversary is 12/15. I've put up with so much over 7 years, can't do it anymore. I am worried about him, but he won't get real help. What should I do to help him and get my life on the right trace?? Any advice would be great! TY Marie

I would suggest a separation maybe, with you getting the support you need with therapist, marriage counseling, even if HE won't go. Keep yourself financially stable, and see if he can't eventually realize that there ain't no free :)

What does he do for work? You should show him the classified ads every day.

I agree with hiareth...you should do what is going to help you!

We are seeing a councelor but he talks there then doesn't follow through at home. He's really really lazy, pissing me off! He works for USPS, which I did too and I know what hell it is, but he has to work, no way around it. He won't even look for something else.

It's painful too, cuz you want things to work, but maybe he won't realize how serious this problem is until he HAS to, and that may mean separation for a while, when you are ready

I am leaning toward what hiareth wrote earlier...I am so sorry you're having such a sh*tty time. :(

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
