DH has been massively stressed at work for the last year and has been having increasing numbers of 'down' days. He withdraws into himself, but also gets irritated more easily, he has nearly stopped running (which he used to do all the time) and on bad days just wants to sleep or surf the computer.
I'm finding it v.difficult to see him like this, he's not like his nomral self and don't feel I can do anything to help... exhausted of always being the strong one, and doing the majority of stuff round the house to save him having something else to be stressed about. Trying not to show this to him, as I don't want him to feel bad about making my life tougher too.
Any coping techniques?? Will this get better? Does this sound like depression?
