Hi, I'm new to this but am getting a little tired of the help and advice from so called professional at the NHS! Forgive me if this goes on a bit but I' have lot to get off my chest.....
My wife has suffered with depression since she was very young. She has dealt with it pretty well, up until about 18 months ago. Following a huge family fall out and her best friend going away for a year she pretty much fell apart and made an attempt at her own life, though thankfully it didn't work. After a lot of hard work from us both and her friend returning, things started to get better.
However, she is starting to spiral again and I I'm very concerned about her, she is convinced all her friend hate her and that she is a terrible person, she is also convinced I am going to leave her. A few yrs back I left her over something silly, but it seems to have stuck that I'm going to do it again, which I will never do. She had some private councelling about a year ago which included some hympnotherapy which seemed to work to a point, however its very expensive and we do not enough money for it to be regular. NHS help is the worst thing we have ever been thru. She self harms sometimes and the NHS recommended her doing cross stitch!
Having never suffered with derpression myself I cannot ever imaginge how tough it is for her and anyone who suffers from it. Does anyone have any advice on how can help her without making things worse?
