[quote=Anonymous]I didn't read all of this but I think the best advice has been for OP to work with a therapist, see if he can locate a support group through an organization like NAMI for family members of people with mental illness. In terms of doing something to get some movement towards better care for her depression, OP should see if he can accompany her on a visit to her PCP or, ideally, psychiatrist. OP, the reason for you to seek the help of a therapist yourself is because right now you're focused on wanting out, which means you can't be a good partner for her to step up efforts to treat her illness. Plus, you need some help from experts to learn how to be an effective support. I think you owe it to her, your kids, and yourself, to commit to that effort. [/quote]
