Me again....long time no post I guess.
I'm at a complete lose right now of what to do and how to go about this.
My husband seems totally depressed (well I think that is what it is). Hardly gets out of bed and when he does just sits and stares. Won't discuss with me what is going on. (well I do get "I don't know')
Some months ago he lost his job for alot of different reasons he told me, but I happen to think it was because he missed so much work because he wouldn't get out of bed, or some "sickness" a few times every week.
So of course that was his new reason to be depressed.
Last week he finally got another job, great news, I thought.
Well he goes to work one day and low and behold..... the second day of his job he stays in bed.
Now I have no idea what to do, I have tried everything I know and nothing is working and he won't take my advice and go to his doctor and maybe get his meds changed.
What the hell do I do now? It is really taking me back to a place I don't want to go to anymore.....took me too long to get out of there, but seems he is dragging me back.
I feel bad I am not more supportive,but in order to do that it is going to take a big toll on me.
Maybe I am just trying to justify my mostly lack of support but how long can I go on trying to support someone who won't even get out of bed for days.
If anyone has any better ideas on supporting him, please speak up or let me know how you would like to be supported when you are down.
It seems I have totally pushed it out of my mind my years of depression and am really at a loss here.
I've pulled myselfout and my daughter but now I am left unarmed....any ideas?
