Husband’s depression is driving me mad
I’m pregnant, with twins! We own our home, our bills are paid, we do things for fun and have pets we love dearly. He’s never happy.
On paper everything is so perfect and great but he will always find something to complain about. He feels inadequate at work, he hasn’t gotten a promotion he’s been wanting and he feels “lost” but mind you, he’s in a better position he was last year and the year before that. It always works out and he always end up doing great. It’s not enough for him. Between his work and his past traumas, he carries this dark cloud over us.
He’s on ssris, but they need to be raised and he literally had a panic attack so bad he was referred to a heart doc because they thought he was having a stroke. He wasn’t, he just stresses out so much he’s fucking up his blood pressure.
I’ve begged him to see a psychiatrist or a therapist. He keeps “forgetting to” call them.
I have my issues, I always have. Anxiety and depression but he’s unbearable! The sun is shining, our lives are great and he’s never happy. I can give him the stars in the sky and he’ll still not be happy or satisfied. I feel like shit thinking all this but I’m so tired. I shouldn’t be pregnant and also worried about my husband and his moods.
I mean I’ve literally given him everything any man would beg for. Blood, sweat, tears, and I’m just wondering when will it be enough. Will it ever be enough.
