I have bipolar 1 and borderline and am currently in the middle of a bad episode I have tried to take my own life recently. But dh has no family and no friends to turn to for support. We cut contact with his highly toxic family. We are both child hood sexual abuse victims. We have three school one disabled.
On the surface our marriage looks great but as hard as I try to make time to do things with dh he is always playing a particular game on his phone which I can't play because he has a android phone and I have a I phone.
We have other games consoles and I try really hard to play on them with him but he just zones into his phone. We spend no time together anymore but he says the online world on his game are his only source of support.
He has also admitted its hard to be around me long as I'm so depressed I can't afford for our marriage to end but at the moment we are just drifting further and further apart no matter how hard I try.
We even argue over contraception that's the only time we communicate is to argue.
