[quote=Anonymous]Reading the thread on depression in men got me thinking - could we crowdsource ways to help depressed husbands? My DH has been depressed for at least a decade, he does take medication now, which significantly helps, but it doesn’t do the trick by itself. He has become introverted and grumpy, and stopped hobbies like going to sporting games. He is short with our kids and barely talks to me, and throws himself into household chores as a way to escape. I don’t think I am a very good spouse for him anymore, I am stressed out by pressure to be the high earner, be emotionally available for our kids, handle the planning and extended family relationships, etc. Any suggestions? I dream about DH joining his alumni club, picking up pickleball or a poker game, doing therapy, etc. but I don’t know what good answers are. [/quote]
