Such a great article!  I wish I'd had this when my husband was in the midst of his depression.  He suffers from both Depression and PTSD, and for years we never new it...until he had a nervous breakdown.  He's doing great now on meds and, oddly enough, his disease brought us closer together and made our marriage stronger.  Thanks so much for sharing your experiences!

Just happened upon this article...and BOY does this sounds *just* like my husband. :( It makes me so sad to see him like this...and I'm just coming to the realization that there really is nothing I can do about it. We had a huge falling out last week, because I actually stupidly thought I could force him to go to the Dr. to talk about his depression. Yeah, that only forced him to leave the kids and I and go stay in a hotel for 4 days. So, now that he's back, he's back to laying around and sleeping alot, irritableness, and negativity towards the kids...the reasons we were arguing when he left. I'm at my wits end, but I love this man with all of my heart and soul. I just want him better...just not sure what else to do with him. :/Thank you for your input, so now I can at least see some of the symptoms that others 'really' go through...and these are big ones that go on around here daily!!
