HG,
One more thing that I forgot to mention in my previous post ...
You mentioned that you thought it was hard to understand my feelings toward my husband. Yes, I do love him .. at least the husband that he USED to be. I love my husband, our family and my life, as I once knew it. Because of my husband's change of attitude (depression not getting addressed correctly/successfully?) I am very frustrated. So frustrated, in fact, that I many times feel like giving up. I came to this board hoping for some input/advice from you folks here, 'cause you have gone through this first hand.
I know that there is no easy answer. I'm thinking that I am not ready to give up (quite) yet. I plan on taking quite a few of the comments/advice that I received on this BB to heart. I will (once again) find a supportive counselor for me. While we can't solve anything, at least I will have a "neutral" place to vent.
I am hoping that an opportunity arises whereby I will be able to talk to my husbands pdoc. I would like to make sure he is aware of some things about my husband and also mention a couple of the different prescriptions mentioned here (that I have not heard of previously) to see what my husband's pdoc has to say about those and the possiblity of my husband trying those.
Just thought that I'd mention a few of these things. As I said .. and as so many of you already have noticed, I am apparently still trying to move forward in anything that *I* can do with regards to my husband's depression and how it affects me.
Thanks,
~Flame
