Hi,
Would like to know how to best approach my husband who I believe is depressed. I would love him to seek some help but how do I tell him this?
Many Thanks

Hi Ahappierlife,
I am assuming that you have a strong marriage and can discuss issues freely.
If it were me, I would want my wife to tell me what made her think that (if I was in denial) and would hope she'd encourage me to accompany her to our GP so we can get an assessment and perhaps a referral for treatment.
Kind regards, John.
