My DP is really poorly and depressed. We have an 11 month old DS who is quite wonderful but DP's mood went down after he arrived. It was an emergency c-section which he witnessed, I wonder if he was freaked out by it? He is in £35k of debt which will take approx 10 years to pay off, we have been to citizens advice and they have stopped the interest. Luckily it is my house - purchased before we met, and it is my car so we are not at risk of losing the roof over our heads. He is understandably frustrated about not having anything to his name but for the time being it is impossible to change it.
He is becoming more tetchy and angry and getting narky in front of our DS. I am at my wits end and don't know how we can get through it.
He has a docs apt tomorrow as I think he would benefit from medical help. He has acknowledged he is depressed but it's becoming unbearable.
Any experience / advice. I'm at work today so won't be able to MN 'til this evening. Thanks for any help!
