[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly unless your husband seeks professional help, there is no way this situation will improve.
It is impossible.

Encourage him to seek out mental health resources.
He needs to be evaluated/screened for severe depression.
Then hopefully he can get on some good medication which will change his negative views.
Add in a weekly therapist & he may be able to put his misery behind him for good.

But he needs to take the initiative + put in the work.
Since many men do not seek help for depression, let him know that you will be close by to support him in getting better.

If he chooses to not seek assistance, then you can deliver an ultimatum to him.
Either seek help or you cannot continue living in a home of misery.

Because as WE all know ->>
Misery just loves company.

Sad, but true![/quote]

He is in therapy and on meds. Things are better than when he was in the worst phase of his depression, which is when I gave him an ultimatum to get help or I would leave. Even though things are better, they're still not good. I have gotten so used to things being the way they are that I sometimes don't realize things aren't normal until I hang out with friends and realize the dynamic between other couples is totally different. I feel badly for him, and I do love him. I just don't enjoy being around him very much. [/quote]
