[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the kind replies. I guess part of the problem is that I deal with stress by planning and figuring out how to move forward. I'm bad at taking breaks and letting things sink in. I think he's hit a point where it's incredibly hard for him to stay engaged without drifting into his thoughts. I'm an idiot and I try to pull him out through conversation or asking him to engage DC. It's actually more manageable sometimes when he is out of town.

It's tough too b/c we just moved and don't know very many people. We have a few friends, but not nearly as much as we had previously.

Man. I feel like a lousy wife. [/quote]

You're not a lousy wife.  You're just all going through a really difficult time - cut yourself some slack too.

As for friends - is this crises something you are comfortable sharing with others?  I think a lot of times folks try to hide their troubles, but this is the kind of thing that can actually help create friendships if you open up enough to let people help you.[/quote]
