Depression sucks. Not sure what to do…

Hello. Not sure who will read this, but I thank you in advance for all who do. I have had depression for a few months or so now, and it’s awful. It’s not at the worst point. I am thankful for that. I have however not been able to get out of it, and it really sucks. I am not wanting to do much of anything, and if I do, it’s hard to find joy in it.

There is a certain issue in my life that is affecting my brain/mood and is not helping me at all. It’s my husband’s constant complaining. It’s almost an every day thing with him. He always brings up negative things and never looks on the bright side of anything. I have told him it is taking a toll on me, and he just doesn’t seem to get it. He even told me “You don’t have depression”. I don’t? Ok, thank you doctor. 🙄 Does anyone else deal with this at all? If so, what do you do or how do you deal with it? It’s like he pushes it when I ask him to stop doing it.

@ConcernedWife2017 depression really does suck I'm sorry sweetie. What I think you need is go on a little holiday maybe a weekend away, just go somewhere relaxing and do nice things just for yourself 💗 and tell your husband just before you leave you'll be back when he grows up and starts taking you seriously💖😁💖

@Tinywhisper11, thank you so much for your reply. I greatly appreciate it. 🩷 Maybe a little “vacation” is exactly what I need. He just doesn’t get it. How can someone just constantly sit and bi*** about every little thing?! I don’t get it. I’m getting closer to walking away if he doesn’t stop. I can’t handle him being like this. He tells me to get used to it. Why should I have to?!

@ConcernedWife2017 yeah I would not be able to cope with constant negativity, I don't know how you put up with it. And now you've been diagnosed with depression you need to take breaks and look after your own health💖

It’s definitely been a rough road dealing with it. I try so hard to stay positive, but it’s hard with his constant negativity. I’m definitely trying to take care of my mental health at this point. I try doing things daily to uplift my mood. Sometimes it works, while other times not so much. I think if he wasn’t so negative, things might be a bit better.

@Tinywhiaper11, thank you so very much. I hope he does too, because I can’t deal with this much longer. Thank you for all of your kind words. It means a lot to me 🩷
