We’ve been together for almost 10 years but the last 12 months has been rough.

I know he is depressed. I have been trying to get him help. But I am now exhausted and not sure how to help him or myself.

Each day I wait and wonder what mood he is going to be in when he gets home. I feel like I can’t share any of my stressors with him as I don’t want to put anymore on his plate.

Could be work. Could be bad weather. Could be a slight inconvenience. It doesn’t take much and suddenly he is the most negative person. Never aggressive to me – but slamming doors, swearing at his tools.

I feel so alone even though we are together so much.

I love him dearly, but I don’t know how to help him and I feel like I am losing myself.

What do I do?
