chosen.content: First and foremost, the best way to deal with your husband's depression is to support him emotionally and encourage him to seek medical or mental health care as appropriate. Express your love and care for him, but also tell him in a gentle yet firm way that you need him to find ways to get out of the rut he is in. You can offer to go with him to a therapist or help him research and find useful resources. You could also try talking to his doctor or another close friend or relative who may be able to offer perspective and advice. Ultimately, you need to be understanding and supportive, but make it clear that you want to see him get better and that you'll do whatever you can to help him find his way out of his depression.

rejected.content: Talking to your husband and showing that you care is a great start. Let him know you are there for him and that you are willing to help him navigate through his depression. Let him know that there is hope and that it is possible for him to overcome this difficult feeling. Showing him compassion, offering to help with tasks, and simply listening without judging are some useful strategies. However, make sure to approach it in a loving, yet firm way. It's important that he knows you are committed to helping him, but also that he knows he must be actively involved in his own recovery.
