I confronted him and his answer was he's stress over university and his finances. I know that he has been on antidepression for years but reason he gave me was for his insomnia occured during deployment; however he denies his recent behaviour is depression related at all. He used to be the sweetest person ever, kind, sensitive. Now he is cold, I dont even get eye contact from him, let alone loving gestures or even a hug. He is irritable and doesnt even like to be touched. He doesnt want to talk about it and our relationship is really rough, we dont live together but when we talk on the phone its just blunt and deadair..... i been crying so much as i dont know if this is depression or he simply doesnt love me anymore. does anyone has experience similar to that that can help me through this?

I suffered depression 4 years ago. It was stressful for my husband because I don't talk and wants to be alone. It was like I can't handle anything at all. Lucky me, my husband did not give up on me. I went to therapy and he did too. We also went to a marriage therapist. Slowly I was feeling better. And now I believe I'm totally fine and my marriage is as solid as a rock.

We've only been married 2 years and the signs were there right along, I just chose to ignore them. I want our marriage to work and still love him, but I am confused, lost and totally drained. He has moved out and living in a hotel, hiding behind a 60-70 hour work week. He's also deaf, which complicates things even more. We have an appointment with a psychologist in a few days. The hardest part: he turns everything around and blames me for everything, exaggerates details and then two minutes later tells me how much he loves me and tries to kiss me. I want to vomit!!

Both must feel committed to making the relationship work. If your partner flatly refuses to enter the therapeutic arena then go by your self, you can still benefit and learn things about your own reactions and behaviours. Many Thanks Regards Dawn Pugh http://www.everytherapist.com Hi Dr shock,
