My husband by Anonymous

My husband has been so depressed for several months that I didn't know what to do. I finally called the doctor even though he didn't want me to and got some medication.

He cries on the weekend sometimes and tells me he thinks he's going crazy. He can't stand the way he feels. He hates himself and doesn't know why. We have children but all he wants to do is lay in bed and hold on to me. I can't stand it anymore.

He agreed to take medication and it seems to be working but we can't find the right one. He stops as soon as he feels a little bit sick. I want him to stick with it until his system gets used to it.

I can't live with him this way. I want the person I married back. The person who used to laugh and play with the kids and fix up the house. This is very very hard on all of us and I really hope that he realizes he needs to do something. Thanks
