I'm starting to get a bit concerned about my marriage. Been together 10 years with 2 kids. I have never really had a hobby or a passion as such, just the usual stuff like books telly, films etc. Dh has 2 hobbies which he is really into at the moment. He is so enthusiastic about them, and I must admit I feel jealous and resentful at times. I'm going through a real low period just now, and if I'm honest have not been good for a while. He has had mental health issues and I did my upmost to support him. He just seems to become distant when I need his support. Knowing that I'm low he still went to a competition for his hobby with some friends and his brother on Saturday leaving me with the kids all day. We had an OK day but its not the point really. I just wish he would commit the same enthusiasm and energy into the kids and me as he does his passions in life. We have hardly any shared interests and if he can't even be there when I need him what's the point.
I know I'm very negative at the moment as I'm depressed, am I being unreasonable and needy?
