Nickm,
No, I didn't mean anything personal by it. I should have mentioned that all people can perceive a spouse's depression differently than the spouse. My husband, for example, doesn't recognize what an angry man he becomes when he doesn't take his Paxil and Blood Pressure meds. Angry, paranoid, lashing out at the kids and me, red-faced, and unable to relax. On his meds, he laughs so much more and enjoys life without being filled with rage. He can't seem to see the connection though.
I would be horrified if they tried ECT on him and I'm thankful the first AD that he tried worked.
What I mentioned was only a possibility to be considered, which is why I put the disclaimer.
I still wish you and your wife Good Luck in your search.
