How to help wife with anxiety and depression
Depression Support / by proactiveMelon9009

...See more My wife has deal with depression and anxiety for the last 2-3 years. She has her highs and lows but functions as if everything is ok. She has been on medication during this time. She is a shell of her former self at times, but her mood and anger has been directed towards my family interactions I have with my family. I have followed her lead as to what interaction she wants to have that she decided to no be around them. She hasn't seen them for 1.5 years but still finds new ways to not be happy with them. I have distanced myself from my family during that time. She also has anger towards my oldest in college for what I see as the littlest things (Not saying thank you all the time, not staying a night at home when she stops by, etc.). She has recently gone to see a therapist (don't know how long, believe 2 - 3 weeks), and she claims I have broke her down during our 20+ years of marriage. I love and adore my wife, but no matter what I do I can't please her. Its her mood swings once elevated that is going to ruin my marriage. Looking for advice from the community as my heart is breaking and my world is falling apart.
