I recently went through a depression that maybe lasted about 4 or 5 months. I was basically stuck in this really horrible pool of sadness, in addition to constant headaches, stomach aches, fatigue and low sex drive - which were most likely caused by the depression medication I was taking. During this time, my libido declined and my husband and I were intimate every few wks. I genuinely did feel bad bc I didn’t want to deprive him but I just was not in the mood for sex most days.
We had an argument a few wks back where everything was basically put out on the table. My husband revealed to me that he had felt sexually deprived and also felt like we had been fighting a lot, as of lately. I felt like our fights were mostly over trivial things that couples typically fight over when sharing a space together, but I guess it just built up his frustration over time. Anyway, things kinda escalated between us during this argument and he ended up saying he wanted a divorce. I cried my eyes out. The same day, he came back and said he loved me and he wanted us to stay together. He made it sound as if the divorce was something he said out of anger.
We’ve been doing really well but I honestly can’t get the fact that he said he wanted to divorce me out of my mind. It really killed me inside... Especially because I was going through a horrible depression but it was never my intention to push him away. Should I just let it go since we made amends? Its really bothering me and I just can’t believe he’d be ready to throw it all away. We’ve been married for only 2 yrs now and I went into marriage knowing there would be hurdles and things would get difficult... but proposing a divorce was never something that even crossed my mind because I love him that much.
Help :/
tl;dr a 5 month depression completely ruined my sex drive. husband said he wanted a divorce but changed his mind, however I’m hurt by the fact he even brought up divorce. what do I do?
