Re: Missions and Depression

[Guest guest]

In Jack's case the apathy which I am pretty sure is depression is a new twist

and

the opposite of what used to be a positive, cheerful, outgoing personality. I

must

confess that I would not have been attracted to the man now who has no interest,

and finds no pleasure in anything.

I have always found it challenging to be with my schizophrenic son because of

his

depression which goes with the disease. I spent some time with him earlier this

week after not being able to visit him these last 2 months. He was so much

easier

to be with than my husband, and by contrast....really cheerful and positive. It

was

a real eye-opener for me.

Kea, I enjoyed your description of your Dad and Mom regarding dinner. We have

had similar scenarios here. It's a lot like raising children.....only I am too

old for

that!

I am anything but depressed, but am seeing my husband as he really is. I am

kind of in shock and sad.
