Support for partner with depression?

[glitterkitty]

Are there any organisations which can help a partner of someone with depression? I have googled without sucess. Many thanks.

I don't know of any organisations specifically for helping the partner of someone with depression. If you come back and tell us more about the difficulties and your circumstances, I am sure you will get responses, as most (or all) of us on the MH threads have or are suffering from some form of mental illness, depression being the most common one.

Not for me- so cant really elaborate.

I'm asking as a friends wife is depressed and he is finding it hard to cope. Just thought there might be some kind of help out there as I dont know much about the subject.

MN is usually the font of all knowlege! Thanks for response!
