My wife has depressionand Ican tell you there are different stages of depression , however, have a physician give her a questionnaire as to her severity of depression buy ifyou have already done this and she is on medication. at this point as far as I'm concerned by speaking with your physician and my wife all i can do is support her. Helping with depression is almost obsolete as far as my helping her. She also has bipolar , personality disorder, which aggravates the depression and my wife is on meds for that also not to mention the ever day hurt that may be associated with depression.. its not just mental its physical also .. read as much on this subject as possible to assist your wife , not her fault she has it , its either hereditary or due to medicine she has taken that caused this. just be there for her, its not a cake walk , but we married for better or worse , stick with it man and read, read , read to better understand the condition. my name is James ... send any thing to kaysefx5@Yahoo.com subject help w depression. The above post was excellent. I would like to add two things in life that can cause depression in women. Shortly after having a baby and it's called 'postpartum blue' and treatable by her doctor, or if she should be going into peri menopause or menopause. Peri menopause is a change of hormones and can start as young as 35 years old (many cases of this) and she may have skipped periods, feeling lethargic, depressed, moody, angry one minute and happy the next. Menopause means a woman ceases to have her periods and can have hot/cold flashes, moodiness, depression, anger outbursts, can't make up her mind; sad one moment and practically bouncing off the walls with happiness in the next moment. Take your wife for a complete physical and get the doctor to give her a T3/T4 blood test for thyroid. Also have the doctor check her hormone levels (although these tests aren't always accurate) and if she has any missed periods to no periods she should tell the doctor this as well. Women get depressed going through postpartum blues, peri menopause or menopause and this has nothing to do with the regular mental ailments others have. Don't jump to conclusions and let the doctor diagnose. Go with your wife and be supportive. I gave my husband information on my menopause which he read and I was thankful he did and we worked through it together.
Call your county mental health department or any hospital. Explain your situation and they'll refer you to someone that can help you. Don't be afraid, they're used to these calls. Don't hesitate or procrastinate. You're not a weak person, depression is a physical illness first, that secondly affects your emotions. If you have no money or insurance don't worry. There's free help available everywhere. Yeah plus if you didn't want help then why did you type this question in the first place? Runing helps or deep breathing and praying. Do not put your self down, what you say you will after a time belive. Think of someone you love and how you would forgive them at the drop of a hat. You would tell them they mean something to you and there worth it. Try to treat your self as you would a friend do not be hard on you'r self, it takes time to change your thinking. Treat you'r self well eat right take a shower Avery day and dress up. It is harder to feel bad when you look well gromed!
I am talking from a medical professional field and expierence here. My wife was suicidal 3 years ago. The best thing that I was able to do for her was to talk with her and try to get her to talk to me or someone else. It is a very slow and difficult process due to the fact that you want your wife to be happy and not feeling emotionally upset with anything. To help with the low self esteem again the best thing to do is to give great compliments, and to talk to her about why she is feeling this way. If this does not work try to get her into counceling or get her to talk to a friend or family member. This is step one in keeping someone from taking it to the next level which is what my wife was at due to me being gone all the time as a fire fighter.
