My wife is depressed and suicidal. She will not talk to anyone- there is always a reason why not, why they will not be able to help. Yet she complains about being at home and not having anyone to talk to but resists any suggestion to talk to someone or interact with anyone.
I can understand her being negative. I am running out of ideas as to how to help. She will not talk to her doctor about the depression and is living in her head with her fears and anxieties. The thought of cancer returning dominates her life and she increasingly has no interest in life.
Then, suddenly, she is ok again so, in her view, there is no point in talking to anyone about it all.
If you would like to give our helpline a ring the staff there will be only too happy to talk to you about your concerns for your wife. Calls are free, 0808 800 6000 lines open at 9am today until 5pm (weekdays) and Sat 10-2. I have also put for you below the link to one of BCC’s publications - In it together which you might find helpful.
Let your wife know she must keep it positive, because the power is in your way of speaking and thinking. If God was ready for her he wouldn’t have saved her, she need to know she has a story to tell and it is called a Blessing. Let your wife know it is time for her to live life to the fullest, stop waddling in sorrow, and let God take over, get him in her life, because he is the only thing that can help her. And for you husband stay strong. A family that pray together stay together.
