Depression doesn’t just affect the individual—it impacts their spouse and the marriage as a whole. While one partner may struggle with feelings of sadness and withdrawal, the other often battles helplessness, self-blame, and resentment. Left untreated, depression can significantly raise the risk of divorce and increase the likelihood of the non-depressed partner developing depression themselves.
