Hi im always so depressed but when i get deppressed...
Couples do survive. Me and my wife have been together for over 15 years and I have struggled with depression since childhood. I would say that the biggest challenge you have is to keep communicating. Counseling/therapy can help him and you might even want to get some. These times are hardest with all the talk of depression in society it tends to affect me hard anyway. There are many options for depression treatment, he should look at them all.
Therapy.
Prescription.
Over the counter.
Just keep talking to eachother.
Hope this helps,
Pat
