I Miss My Husband

I miss the man he used to be. I miss the man I married. He suffers from severe depression and has other issues and it's difficult, for both of us. I wish I could help him. I want to reach him and help him find his way back, but with every year that passes, I know that possibility is fading. With the new year fast approaching this thought is hanging heavy in my mind and on my heart.

Have you tried empowering him? Middle aged men seem to get depressed because they feel life is boring and they lost control... simply letting him make more decisions about life's path could help... probably not solve it, but bringing his mind back to his youth would certainly help

I appreciate your suggestions, however, this isn't recent. It's been several years now although we continue to try, his efforts have become less and less. I'm hoping and trying for both of us now and it's very difficult to say the least.
