Husband depressed too
| Tue, 03-09-2004 - 1:43pm |
I have been battling depression for a long time, and have been on severla different meds over the lst 2 years. It has been really bad for me during this time. I had severe PPD after my son's birth.
My husband has now become depressed too. I don't know how to handle this. I have no energy to deal with my own depression , never mind Dh too. My poor kids are caught in the middle.
Any ideas about how to handle this?
Thank you.

Welcome to our board, pajama.momma!
I would recommend that you see a Naturopathic doctor WITH your husband. Since you are both depressed, you should team up to change your diet. Nutritional changes and vitamin supplements will help the whole family. Diet & exercise is the #1 controllable to beat the blues & change the chemical imbalances that cause depression.
Good luck,
Linda
