I don't watch that many movies .. read the news and research more ... Depression varies from one to another .. of course, my last resort is to leave but it really depends on the degree of depression .. there are type where the person can really go crazy and you just gotta let go. an example would be someone with Alzheimer's disease; you can't take care of him/her anymore because it's physically, mentally, and emotionally draining.
as long as you dont mind your wife dumping you and finding someone else if YOU get Alzheimer's or depression.
I would quote you, but seems you have edited your post...how clever <_< But you did originally say something along the lines of you see all these things in movies. So *shrug*. And yes, +1 to master_g
I didn't edit my post. I don't watch movies that much. I am too old for that ..lol You must have misread it. If you don't believe me, check with the admin. I didn't make any correction.
You sound like a jerk. NO ONE wants a sickness, or disease. NO ONE ! Who wants to be born crippled? Who wants to encounter life changing events that disable them? NO ONE ! Stop acting like a jerk and faggot for saying such things. If you leave, then you obviously have a cold heart and don't know what love is, much less experienced it. Your one of those parents that would abandon their child. It's sad, I think the mental sickness is yourself, not your wife.
^ lol .. sick, faggot, and a jerk ... what else? keep it coming ..lol i have not even encounter such a prob .. just how i feel now. BUT, until you, yourself have encountered such a condition, then keep us posted on how long you can hold up, alright? you can call me whatever you want ..lol .. bottom line is we handle things differently.
If you love your girlfriend/boyfriend,yeah,why not?!The person needs support and you can't just dump him after discovering that he was ill.
The way you handle things = the character that you created of yourself. Experience builds character and if your option is to ditch your wife or anybody who is a baggage to you, then that makes you a self-centered, irresponsible, sad bastard. Hey you sure have the right to make any decisions, but it definitely does not make you a better person.
first congrats... second a lot of women have postpartum depression... but if u take her to the doctor as soon as u recognise the signs she'll recover very soon... postpartum depression isn't a reason for a husband to leave his wife... this is the time she needs his support the most... i'm not a person that believes in marriages... but i believe once u get married u shouldn't think divorce is an option unless ur life is under threat...
^ agree .. of course, for ME only now .. i would leave if my "life" and possibly my baby's life are threaten to some degree. i am not gonna head out the door when i know she has depression .. like some appeared to believe here .. i come from a traditional family myself so i definitely try to work things out and divorce would only be my last resort. seriously now, the last thing i want for my child is a broken family.
