So I talk to DH this morning, and he brings up the fact that he can’t sleep. He wakes up very early and can’t get back to sleep. I suggested that it’s because he’s depressed. He thinks so, too, but get this. That is just the way life is. He’s not going to go see anyone about it. I said that I think it’s chronic depression and that a pill might help. No, that’s the way life is.
I resisted the urge to say, “So if you were bleeding to death from a stoppable wound, you’d die, because that’s the way life is?”
Hi Jen
I just want you to know that I’m thinking about you! I used to be in a realsionship like yours - and I know it’s hard. I can’t tell you what to do - but you are a strong person (even if you don’t believe it). It’s admirable that you are trying to help him, but if he wont listen… what is the alternative?
You are more than welcome to e-mail me privately if you need to get things of your chest!
Hugs from Maria
