My wife has been really depressed lately,so much so she checked herself into the Cirque Lodge in Sundance,Utah. $$$$ luckily her company is paying for it.
I think it's where the stars go to dry out. BUT...last night two of my neighbors did a double suicide!

Hang in there Scott.
I went through an "episode" a few years back and things got better - even though at the time I never thought I'd function again. ( Some on this site would probably argue how well I function now but that is another issue...)
But stay positive it may take time but all will be fine in the near term.
I am praying for ya... this stuff is not easy.

Sorry, my friend. I didn't mean to come off as insensitive - just trying to make light of a dark time...
This year has been tough; I can totally empathize with being depressed and 'on the verge'. I remember saying "I am stepping out of this life one way or another!" - classic me. I'm on an up-swing right now though. Found out I am not getting laid off anytime soon, as I was instead, moved to a great project that really challenges me! Really busy again! That means no 6-month long roadtrip, however.
But this year's unsuredness forced me to start seeing a counselor a couple months ago - a few people know how out of control I had become (worse anyway). Those few sessions helped... it has been good to get out a bunch of negativity and get me back on course. Trying to redirect all that energy right now... it's like fighting cancer, in a way, I think.
Anyway, I don't mean to make this about me, just offering what I have found daunting and helpful lately (I'm not afraid of oversharing). I hope you are able to help lift your wife's spirits instead of her dragging your's down. Stay strong and positive, it'll get better!

Scott,
I'm sorry to hear things aren't going well. Let's go out for a beer. I just tried to call you, but I can't find your number on the Rolladex. Yes, I still use one of those.
Peace.

Scott,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you & your wife too.
I went through a very bad divorce. It was the worst 10 years of my life (Yup - the ex dragged it out for 10 LOOOOONG years). It was also some of the best times of my life because Brenda was with me through it all. Never underestimate the impact you can have on your spouse. I'm glad your wife has you to help her through this.
Maybe you should introduce her to this forum. Raggin on Ldub, ZEUS & Handee on a daily basis can be very theraputic.

No offense taken Justin,I'm glad you're doing better.
Thanks for the honesty and encouragement.
Scott, I will add you and your family to my prayers for my Scott and the rest of the VXers that are having troubled times. Seems like there really is something strange going on this year. Can't figure it out. I hate the torment that everyone seems to be experiencing. I know life is hard but haven't we all had our share this year??
My only advice is to just take one day at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff and give doggies lots of hugs and kisses, as they are not judgmental and give hugs and kisses back without any conditions. This is a phenomenal family of VXers and lean on it for all of the support and love you need.
