First, I wish you well, having a wife with recent challenges, I realize this can happen to anyone. The recent behavior is not good, and hopefully you will be seeing a counselor or psychiatrist and evaluating medicine if needed.

Like everyone, they have varying abilities but it can be largely the desire to get well which impacts success.

Thanks Bobby 5000 I will get back in contact with my GP

sorry for what you are going through. I have many similar problems. as far as therapy, i think insurance now covers online counselling which is good since you don't have to get out of the house if you don't feel like it and give you more options.
i'm on here quite often if you want to chat.
just do tiny things, like trying to shower or whatever or sit out side for 5 minutes. it doesn't solve anything but when are down for this long and not doing much our bodies start to respond to that too. i'm dealing the same thing. it's really hard.

I am so sorry what you are going through and how you are feeling.
I am probably not much help as I am going through a tough time myself.
The anxiety I woke up with this morning was just unbearable.
I wish you well. And this forum is a God send for me. I write here alot.
Best to you.

Joannie777,

Been there, I can days without showering myself.
During covid (when it was really bad, and went into a lockdown) I went without bathing for......probably 2-3 week's, And won't unless going somewhere.

I do still eat, and have an appetite, But, when I was Younger, and we went on summer vacation.....all I wanted to do is sleep (I eventually did get up........at noon) I have been sleeping less though, as of late, go to bed at like 11;30-12. And get up at maybe 7am, sometimes before down......I think that's because of anxiety.....And I think I have PTSD
Which all of it leads to Depression, and on top of all that, I have cerebral Palsy.

Hang in there, we'll get through this

Thanks all of you for all your kind words and surport I've now seen the doctor and been put on more anti depression tablets thank you

joanne777 I hope the medication helps your energy levels! I was recently Diagnosed with Depression and understand how at times you can feel (or not as the case may be).
I have found medication to of helped but I have also been undertaking Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Even with these tools it is 'Baby steps'
Good luck!

So sorry to hear that, There are lots of is out here that have many of the same issues, so don’t feel alone. Hope you have better days ahead & feel free to message any time.
