Most of you know our story, severe depression and anxiety about a problematic move where my wife largely blamed herself.  I had told her good friend that my therapist recommended positive reinforcement and this is the friend's response.    

"You are in a difficult period now, Bobby with Jenny and that also directly impacts you. I am sorry she is not improving. I try to be her friend and not tell her what to do or should do as i tried that and it became frustrating. Its hard to compliment her when she asks me lots of questions but doesnt tell about herself. So then i ask just to make conversation. Carly does better than me w this.  I continue to hope & pray for her recovery."   

Friends and family say she is somewhat close-mouthed and really doesn't open up to them unlike some women who want sympathy and to tell about their problems.  Any response or steps I should take.
