[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, OP. We're going through this but we're on the husband's side right now. We have all been good friends (six couples) but the wife seems to have gone off the deep end and won't communicate with any of us (she left to their second home, he is here in our neighborhood, children are away at summer camp for six weeks).

If your friend is depressed, it's possible she's not seeing reality right now. I would maybe see if you could get her to agree to continue therapy (and hopefully medication?) for a period of time to see if she can maybe get more clear-headed about things. (I wouldn't phrase it that way to her but you know what I mean). Since she's felt like this since day one, it sounds like it isn't a total surprise, but I don't know how old their kids are and it may be in everyone's best interest to sit on this for a bit.

I would absolutely not reach out to her husband, even if you two are friends. I now know things I kind of wish I didn't, but I would not tell the wife even if she were speaking to us (and would also keep her confidence if she did tell us anything). It is not your place to talk to him at all. [/quote]
