Hi Bigsky,
Welcome to the forum!
I am glad you've come here for support. Having two small children to care for, settling into a new place and supporting your husband with depression would be tiring. I don't have personal experience in caring for loved ones. I am 23 myself, and I am the only person in my family with mental illness (I've had OCD for 10 years).
There are thankfully some great online resources I'd like to refer you to:
https://www.beyondblue.org.au/supporting-someone/supporting-someone-with-depression-or-anxiety
https://www.beyondblue.org.au/supporting-someone/looking-after-yourself
http://www.mindhealthconnect.org.au/ (this site has a wealth of information on mental health and wellbeing, and provides good contacts/links)
https://healthyfamilies.beyondblue.org.au/home (this is the recently developed Beyondblue site for info on healthy family living)

It would be great to hear back from you!
