thanks honeybee,
It is tough to be married to someone who's depressed. Part of me is happy that he doesn't see me at my worst. When I'm completely anxious, numb, paralyzed, weeping, crashed out on the couch for hours/days at a time. BUT, part of me is sad that he can't be there to scrape llrrrpp residue off of the floor after one of my crises. Well. I will try to take care of me tonight and tomorrow so that I won't get in a bad place.honeybee, are you seeing a therapist at all? It's really helping me, even though it's kinda unpleasant; my therapist gives me a lot of ideas about things that I can change. And interesting ways to come to terms with things that I can't change (like my past). Also helpful ways of dealing with husband in my depressed state...
Well, misery loves company. Darkness loves solitude... so keep in touch, even when you don't want any social contact. I enjoy hanging out on babble. the little emails I get help motivate me to get my sorry @ss out of bed and get my brain in gear.
Best wishes,
ll
